NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1. Organization and Business

INNOVATE Corp. ("INNOVATE" and, together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the "Company", "we" and "our") is a diversified holding company that has a portfolio of subsidiaries in a variety of operating segments. We seek to grow these businesses so that they can generate long-term sustainable free cash flow and attractive returns in order to maximize value for all stakeholders. While the Company generally intends to acquire controlling equity interests in its operating subsidiaries, the Company may invest to a limited extent in a variety of non-controlling equity interest positions or debt instruments. The Company’s shares of common stock trade on the NYSE under the symbol "VATE".

The Company currently has three reportable segments, plus our Other segment, based on management’s organization of the enterprise: Infrastructure, Life Sciences, Spectrum, and Other which includes businesses that do not meet the separately reportable segment thresholds.

1.Our Infrastructure segment is comprised of DBM Global Inc. ("DBMG") and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. DBMG is a fully integrated industrial construction, structural steel and facility maintenance provider that provides fabrication and erection of structural steel and heavy steel plate services and also fabricates trusses and girders and specializes in the fabrication and erection of large-diameter water pipe and water storage tanks, as well as 3-D Building Information Modeling (“BIM”) and detailing. DBMG provides these services on commercial, industrial, and infrastructure construction projects such as high- and low-rise buildings and office complexes, hotels and casinos, convention centers, sports arenas and stadiums, shopping malls, hospitals, dams, bridges, mines, metal processing, refineries, pulp and paper mills and power plants. Through GrayWolf Industrial Inc. ("GrayWolf"), DBMG provides integrated solutions for digital engineering, modeling and detailing, construction, heavy equipment installation and facility services including maintenance, repair, and installation to a diverse range of end markets. Through Aitken Manufacturing, Inc., DBMG manufactures pollution control scrubbers, tunnel liners, pressure vessels, strainers, filters, separators and a variety of customized products. Through Banker Steel Holdco, LLC ("Banker Steel"), DBMG provides full-service fabricated structural steel and erection services primarily for the East Coast and Southeast commercial and industrial construction market, in addition to full design-assist services. The Company maintains an approximately 91% controlling interest in DBMG.

2.Our Life Sciences segment is comprised of Pansend Life Sciences, LLC ("Pansend"), its subsidiaries and equity method investments. Pansend maintains controlling interests of approximately 80% in Genovel Orthopedics, Inc. ("Genovel"), which seeks to develop products to treat early osteoarthritis of the knee and approximately 57% in R2 Technologies, Inc. ("R2"), which develops aesthetic and medical technologies for the skin. Pansend also invests in other early stage or developmental stage healthcare companies including an approximately 46% interest in MediBeacon Inc. ("MediBeacon"), a medical technology company specializing in the advances of fluorescent tracer agents and transdermal measurement, potentially enabling real-time, direct monitoring of kidney function, and an approximately 26% interest in Triple Ring Technologies, Inc. ("Triple Ring"), a science and technology co-development company.

3.Our Spectrum segment is comprised of HC2 Broadcasting Holdings Inc. ("Broadcasting") and its subsidiaries. Broadcasting strategically acquired and operates over-the-air broadcasting stations across the United States. The Company maintains a 98% controlling interest in Broadcasting and maintains a controlling interest of approximately 77%, inclusive of approximately 10% proxy and voting rights from minority holders of DTV America Corporation ("DTV"). On a fully diluted basis, the Company would have an approximately 86% controlling interest in Broadcasting.

4.Our Other segment represents all other businesses or investments that do not meet the definition of a segment individually or in the aggregate. Included in the Other segment is TIC Holdco, Inc. ("TIC"), which is developing a multi-purpose cultural and performing arts space in Palm Beach, Florida, the former Marine Services segment, which includes its holding company, Global Marine Holdings, LLC ("GMH"), in which the Company maintains an approximately 73% controlling interest. GMH's results include its subsidiary's prior 19% equity method investment in HMN International Co., Ltd., formerly known as Huawei Marine Networks Co. (“HMN”), until it was sold on March 6, 2023. Refer to Note 6. Investments for additional information.

Glazer, the Chairman of INNOVATE's Board of Directors and a beneficial owner of the Company, provided a letter of support for up to $35.0 million to the Company expressing Lancer’s continued support for the Company and Lancer’s intent to facilitate the provision of additional funding as reasonably requested by the Board through November 30, 2024 or the date on which the Company closes any sale or series of sales of debt or equity security raised of the Company, as defined in the letter, resulting in aggregate net proceeds to the Company of greater than or equal to $35.0 million. Management believes that with the available cash on hand, available borrowings under the senior credit facility, distributions from the Company’s subsidiaries and the letter of support from Lancer, the Company will be able to meet its obligations for at least the next twelve months from the issuance of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

The ability of INNOVATE’s subsidiaries to make distributions to INNOVATE is subject to numerous factors, including restrictions contained in each subsidiary’s financing agreements, availability of sufficient funds at each subsidiary and the approval of such payment by each subsidiary’s board of directors, which must consider various factors, including general economic and business conditions, tax considerations, strategic plans, financial results and condition, expansion plans, any contractual, legal or regulatory restrictions on the payment of dividends, and such other factors each subsidiary’s board of directors considers relevant. Although the Company believes, to the extent needed, that it will be able to raise additional debt or equity capital, refinance indebtedness or preferred stock, enter into other financing arrangements or engage in asset sales and sales of certain investments sufficient to fund any cash needs that the Company is not able to satisfy with the funds on hand or expected to be provided by our subsidiaries, there can be no assurance that it will be able to do so on terms satisfactory to the Company, if at all. Such financing options, if pursued, may also ultimately have the effect of negatively impacting our liquidity profile and prospects over the long-term and dilute holders of common stock. Our ability to sell assets and certain of our investments to meet our existing financing needs may also be limited by our existing financing instruments. In addition, the sale of assets or the Company’s investments may also make the Company less attractive to potential investors or future financing partners.

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions used.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in the Current Year

Credit Loss Standard

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This new standard and its related amendments change the impairment model for most financial assets that are measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments, including trade receivables and contract assets, from an incurred loss model to an expected loss model and adds certain new required disclosures. Under the new expected loss model, which is based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts, entities recognize estimated credit losses over the entire contractual term of the instrument rather than delaying recognition of credit losses until it is probable the loss has been incurred.

The adoption of ASU 2016-13 and its related amendments on January 1, 2023, did not have any effect on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial statements and did not record any effects through retained earnings. For the amounts calculated for the Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) model subsequent to initial transition, the Company recognizes the expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, and the amount is presented within general and administration costs rather than a separate line. Refer to Note 4. Accounts Receivable, Net.

The Company reviewed its entire portfolio of assets recognized on the balance sheet as of January 1, 2023, and identified Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets as the material impacted assets in-scope of Topic 326. The risk of credit losses from the remaining portfolio of assets was concluded to be immaterial. Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets are presented net of allowances for credit losses. Refer to Note 4. Accounts Receivable, Net. At each balance sheet date, all potentially uncollectible accounts are assessed individually for the purpose of determining the appropriate provision for doubtful accounts. Management has elected to use a risk-based, pool-level segmentation framework to calculate the expected loss rate. Management evaluates its experience with historical losses and then applies this historical loss ratio to financial assets with similar characteristics. The Company’s historical loss ratio or its determination of risk pools may be adjusted for changes in customer, economic, market or other circumstances. The Company may also establish an allowance for credit losses for specific receivables when it is probable that the receivable will not be collected and the loss can be reasonably estimated. Amounts are written off against the allowance when they are considered to be uncollectible, and reversals of previously reserved amounts are recognized if a specifically reserved item is settled for an amount exceeding the previous estimate.

Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Pending Adoption

In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-01, Leases (Topic 842): Common Control Arrangements (“ASU 2023-01”) to improve the guidance for applying Topic 842, Leases, to related party arrangements between entities under common control. ASU 2023-01 improves current GAAP by clarifying the accounting for leasehold improvements associated with common control leases, thereby reducing diversity in practice. The provisions of this ASU that apply to public companies include a requirement for entities to amortize leasehold improvements associated with common control leases over the useful life of the common control group. ASU 2023-01 is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this ASU but does not expect ASU 2023-01 to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On October 9, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06 Disclosure Improvements:Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC's Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative ("ASU 2023-06"), which modifies certain disclosure and presentation requirements of a variety of Topics in the Codification and is intended to both clarify or improve such requirements and align the requirements with the SEC's regulations. The Company is in the process of evaluating the amendments provided in the Update and believes certain of the disclosure improvements may be applicable to the Company's interim or annual disclosures, for example, disclosures related to: earnings-per-share computation for dilutive securities, preferred stock, amounts and terms of unused lines of credit and unfunded commitments and the weighted-average interest rate on short-term borrowings. The effective date for each amendment is the effective date of the removal of the related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K, with early adoption prohibited. The Company will apply the provisions prospectively as such provisions become effective, and does not expect ASU 2023-06 to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Subsequent Events

ASC 855, Subsequent Events requires the Company to evaluate events that occur after the balance sheet date as of which the financial statements are issued, and to determine whether adjustments to or additional disclosures in the financial statements are necessary. Refer to Note 21. Subsequent Events for reference to any subsequent events.

Remaining unsatisfied performance obligations	$	910.1	$	347.2	$	1,257.3

DBMG's remaining unsatisfied performance obligations increase with awards of new contracts and decrease as it performs work and recognizes revenue on existing contracts. DBMG includes a project within its remaining unsatisfied performance obligations at such time the project is awarded and agreement on contract terms has been reached. DBMG's remaining unsatisfied performance obligations include amounts related to contracts for which a fixed price contract value is not assigned when a reasonable estimate of total transaction price can be made. DBMG expects to recognize this revenue approximately within the next 3.25 years.

Remaining unsatisfied performance obligations include unrecognized revenues to be realized from uncompleted construction contracts. Although many of DBMG's contracts are subject to cancellation at the election of its customers, in accordance with industry practice, DBMG does not limit the amount of unrecognized revenue included within its remaining unsatisfied performance obligations due to the inherent substantial economic penalty that would be incurred by its customers upon cancellation.

In November 2021, INNOVATE Corp. entered into a ten-year lease agreement for a special purpose space in Palm Beach, Florida. In February 2023, the lease agreement was amended to extend the term of the lease to 15 years. The lease has not yet commenced, but will require future monthly lease payments of approximately $0.2 million over the entire lease term and yearly common area maintenance charges of $0.6 million, both of which are subject to 3% annual upward adjustments, with total square footage of 25,184, as amended. The lease also provides for the Company to receive an allowance from the landlord of $4.4 million, as amended in February 2023, to be used toward costs to design, engineer, install, supply and construct improvements (the "Construction Allowance"), payable at the end of the construction period, of which $1.1 million and $0.8 million is included in prepaid rent in Other assets as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The future lease payments and remaining unexpended amounts under the allowance are not yet recorded in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Management expects the accounting lease commencement date for this initial portion of the lease for financial reporting purposes to begin in 2024.

In December 2021, the Company entered into a five-year lease agreement with an option to extend the lease for another five years for office space in West Palm Beach, Florida. The new lease has not commenced yet, but will require future monthly lease payments of approximately $0.1 million over the entire lease term, subject to 3% annual upward adjustment, with total square footage of 15,786. Other than a $0.2 million deposit included in Other assets, the future lease payments are not yet recorded on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, as the building is still under construction. Management expects the accounting lease commencement date for this initial portion of the lease for financial reporting purposes to begin in 2024.

On December 30, 2022, Broadcasting entered into a Seventh Omnibus Amendment to Secured Notes which, among other things, extended the maturity date of $52.2 million of its Senior Secured Notes, due December 30, 2022 to May 31, 2024. The effective interest rates on the notes range from 12.8% to 19.6%. Interest is capitalized and payable upon maturity of the principal. The $52.2 million of Senior Secured Notes consisted of $19.3 million of 8.5% Senior Secured Notes and $32.9 million of 10.5% Senior Secured Notes. The other terms of the $19.3 million 8.5% Senior Notes remained the same. At the time of the extension, Broadcasting had accrued interest and other fees of $6.9 million. The interest rate on the $32.9 million 10.5% Senior Notes was increased to 11.45% and cumulative accrued interest and exit fees of $17.5 million were capitalized into the principal balance with both note extensions accounted for as debt modification events. All other terms were essentially the same. Total outstanding principal after the refinancing was $69.7 million, and $6.9 million of accrued interest and fees remain accrued, with total exit fees of $7.6 million which were recorded as original issue discount with a corresponding liability reflected in Other Liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Concurrently therewith and as part of the consideration for extending the 10.5% Senior Notes in December 2022, Broadcasting amended warrants to purchase 145,825 shares of common stock of HC2 Broadcasting Holdings, Inc. common stock held by the lenders of the 10.5% Senior Notes by extending the time to exercise such to the second half of 2026 and reducing the exercise price per share (i) from $140.00 to $0.01 in the case of the certain of the warrants and (ii) from $130.00 to $0.01 in the case of the remaining warrants. The warrants have a five-year term and are exercisable at any time. The change in the fair value of the warrants was recorded as original issue discount with a corresponding impact reflected in Non-controlling interest of $3.1 million.

On August 8, 2023, Broadcasting entered into an Eighth Amendment to Secured Notes with its lenders which extended the maturity date of its Senior Secured Notes aggregate principal amount of $69.7 million, from May 31, 2024 to August 15, 2024. In exchange, Broadcasting incurred an additional exit fee of $1.1 million which was recorded as original issue discount with a corresponding liability reflected in Other Liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Subsequent to quarter end, on November 9, 2023, Broadcasting entered into a Ninth Amendment to its Secured Notes with its lenders which extended the maturity date of its Senior Secured Notes aggregate principal amount of $69.7 million, from August 15, 2024 to August 15, 2025. In exchange, INNOVATE has agreed to utilize proceeds from the sale of any of its existing operations, as allowable under the Company's current agreements and after all other required payments, for repayment of a portion of Broadcasting's Senior Secured Notes, plus an additional exit fee upon such a repayment of $1.0 million if repayment occurs by November 9, 2024, and $2.0 million if repayment occurs after that date. Upon payment of the exit fee, the lenders also agree to return their equity interests in HC2 Broadcasting Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiary equity interests.

During 2022, R2 Technologies entered into an aggregate $10.8 million in 18% notes with Lancer Capital, LLC ("Lancer"), a related party, an entity controlled by Avram A. Glazer, the Chairman of INNOVATE's Board of Directors. In February 2023, R2 Technologies closed on an additional aggregate $0.9 million in 18% notes with Lancer. On March 31, 2023, R2 Technologies entered into an exchange agreement with Lancer, which terminated all prior outstanding notes and simultaneously issued a new 20% note with an aggregate original principal amount of $13.0 million, which comprised of all prior outstanding principal amounts and unpaid accrued interest which was capitalized into the new principal balance with future interest payable upon maturity of the note. During the second and third quarters of 2023, R2 Technologies closed on an additional $2.7 million and $1.7 million, respectively, in 20% notes with Lancer. As of September 30, 2023, the total outstanding principal amount owed to Lancer was $17.4 million.

2026 Senior Secured Notes

The $330.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.50% senior secured notes due February 1, 2026 (the "2026 Senior Secured Notes") was issued in 2021 at 100% of par, with a stated interest rate of 8.50% and an effective interest rate of 9.26%, which reflects $2.7 million of deferred financing fees. Aggregate interest expense, including the contractual interest coupon and amortization of the deferred financing fees, was $7.5 million for both the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Aggregate interest expense, including the contractual interest coupon and amortization of the deferred financing fees, was $22.6 million for both the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

2026 Convertible Notes

The $51.8 million of 7.50% convertible notes (the "2026 Convertible Notes") was issued under a separate indenture dated February 1, 2021, between the Company and U.S. Bank, as trustee (the "Convertible Indenture"). The 2026 Convertible Notes were issued at 100% of par with a stated interest rate of 7.50%. The fair value of the embedded conversion feature contained in the 2026 Convertible Notes had a fair value of $12.3 million, which was recorded as a premium on the 2026 Convertible Notes. The 2026 Convertible Notes mature on August 1, 2026 unless earlier converted, redeemed or purchased. The 2026 Convertible Notes have an effective interest rate of 3.21%, which reflects the initial $12.3 million premium and $1.1 million of deferred financing fees.

Each $1,000 of principal of the 2026 Convertible Notes will initially be convertible into 234.2971 shares of our common stock, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $4.27 per share, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of specified events.

As of September 30, 2023, the 2026 Convertible Notes had a net carrying value of $57.8 million inclusive of an unamortized premium of $6.6 million and unamortized deferred financing costs of $0.6 million. Based on the closing price of our common stock of $1.62 on September 30, 2023, the if-converted value of the 2026 Convertible Notes did not exceed its principal value.

For both the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, interest expense recognized relating to both the contractual interest coupon and amortization of discount net of premium was $0.5 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, aggregate interest expense recognized relating to both the contractual interest coupon and amortization of discount net of premium and deferred financing costs was $1.4 million and $1.5 million, respectively.

Line of Credit

The Company has a revolving credit agreement with MSD PCOF Partners IX, LLC, which has a maximum commitment of $20.0 million ("Revolving Line of Credit "). The Revolving Line of Credit, has an interest rate margin applicable to loans borrowed under the Revolving Line of Credit of 5.75% and interest is paid quarterly. On April 25, 2023, the Company extended the maturity date of its Revolving Credit Agreement from February 23, 2024, to March 16, 2025, and also changed the benchmark rates for interest to SOFR-based rates and lowered the amount of net cash proceeds from certain asset sales in excess of which a prepayment is required from $50.0 million to $10.0 million. The affirmative and negative covenants governing the Revolving Line of Credit are substantially consistent with the affirmative and negative covenants contained in the indenture that governs the 2026 Senior Secured Notes. In March 2023, the Company paid down $15.0 million of the Revolving Credit Agreement, and in May 2023 and July 2023, INNOVATE drew an aggregate additional $15.0 million under the Revolving Credit Agreement, bringing the outstanding balance to $20.0 million as of September 30, 2023.

CGIC Unsecured Note Due 2026

On May 9, 2023, in connection with the redemption of the DBMGi Preferred Stock, the Company issued a subordinated unsecured promissory note to Continental General Insurance Company ("CGIC") in the principal amount of $35.1 million (the "CGIC Unsecured Note"). Refer to Note 15. Temporary Equity and Equity for additional information. The CGIC Note is due February 28, 2026, and bears interest at 9% per annum through May 8, 2024, 16% per annum from May 9, 2024 to May 8, 2025, and 32% per annum thereafter. The CGIC Unsecured Note also requires a mandatory prepayment from the proceeds from certain asset sales and the greater of $3 million or 12.5% of the proceeds from certain equity sales. Other covenants in the CGIC Unsecured Note are generally consistent with the Company's Indenture governing the 8.50% Senior Secured Notes due 2026, dated as of February 1, 2021, by and among the Company, the guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, interest expense recognized relating to the contractual interest coupon was $0.8 million and $1.3 million, respectively.

INNOVATE is in compliance with its debt covenants as of September 30, 2023.

12. Income Taxes

The Company used the Annual Effective Tax Rate ("ETR") approach of ASC 740-270, Interim Reporting, to calculate its 2023 interim tax provision.

INNOVATE CORP.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – CONTINUED

(Unaudited)

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, income tax was an expense of $1.1 million and a benefit of $2.0 million, respectively. Income tax expense was $3.2 million and $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively. The income tax expense relates to tax expense as calculated under ASC 740 for taxpaying entities. Additionally, the tax benefits associated with losses generated by the INNOVATE Corp. U.S. tax consolidated group and certain other businesses have been reduced by a full valuation allowance as management does not believe it is more-likely-than-not that the losses will be utilized. Additionally, the annual ETR calculated for the current period interim tax provision included a $1.1 million tax benefit, consisting of a current tax expense of $4.4 million related to a foreign tax payment and a deferred tax benefit of $5.5 million related to the reversal of the deferred tax liability associated with the $11.3 million put option, both of which were related to the sale of New Saxon's 19% investment in HMN on March 6, 2023. The income tax benefit recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and the income tax expense recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 included the net tax savings of $2.9 million from the CGIC consolidation in the 2021 tax return, resulting in a partial release of the valuation allowance.

Net Operating Losses

At December 31, 2022, the Company had gross U.S. net operating loss carryforwards available to reduce future taxable income of the U.S. consolidated group in the amount of $226.3 million. The Company expects that approximately $162.9 million of the gross U.S. net operating loss carryforwards would be available to offset taxable income in 2023 and later periods. The amount of U.S. net operating loss carryforwards reflected in the financial statements differ from the amounts reported on the U.S. tax return due to uncertain tax positions related to tax laws and regulations that are subject to varied interpretation by the IRS.

Additionally, the Company has $121.2 million of gross U.S. net operating loss carryforwards from its subsidiaries that do not qualify to be included in the INNOVATE Corp. U.S. consolidated income tax return, including $80.6 million from R2, $38.2 million from DTV America, and other entities of $2.4 million.

Unrecognized Tax Benefits

The Company follows the provision of ASC 740 which prescribes a comprehensive model for how a company should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that the Company has taken or expects to take on a tax return. The Company is subject to challenge from various taxing authorities relative to certain tax planning strategies, including certain intercompany transactions as well as regulatory taxes.

The Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2023, and 2022 related to uncertain tax positions that would impact the effective income tax rate if recognized. The Company has reduced the net operating loss carryforward by $58.7 million for uncertain tax positions based on our interpretation of tax laws and regulations that are subject to varied interpretation by the IRS.

Examinations

The Company conducts business globally, and as a result, INNOVATE or one or more of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the United States federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world. Tax years 2002-2022 remain open for examination.

The Company is currently under examination in various domestic and foreign tax jurisdictions. The open tax years contain matters that could be subject to differing interpretations of applicable tax laws and regulations as they relate to the amount, character, timing or inclusion of revenue and expenses or the applicability of income tax credits for the relevant tax period. Given the nature of tax audits, there is a risk that disputes may arise.

13. Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

The Company is subject to claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. Such matters are inherently uncertain, and there can be no guarantee that the outcome of any such matter will be decided favorably to the Company or that the resolution of any such matter will not have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company does not believe that any of such pending claims and legal proceedings will have a material adverse effect on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company records a liability in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for these matters when a loss is known or considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The Company reviews these estimates each accounting period as additional information is known and adjusts the loss provision when appropriate. If a matter is both probable to result in a liability and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company estimates and discloses the possible loss or range of loss to the extent necessary for its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements not to be misleading. If the loss is not probable or cannot be reasonably estimated, a liability is not recorded in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Any legal or other expenses associated with the litigation are accrued for as the expenses are incurred.

Based on a review of the current facts and circumstances with counsel in each of the matters disclosed, management has provided for what is believed to be a reasonable estimate of loss exposure. While acknowledging the uncertainties of litigation, management believes that the ultimate outcome of litigation will not have a material effect on its financial position and will defend itself vigorously.

DTV Derivative Litigation

On March 15, 2021, twenty-two DTV stockholders and eight holders of DTV stock options filed a stockholder class action and derivative complaint in the Delaware Court of Chancery in an action styled Bocock, et al., v. HC2 Holdings, Inc. et al., C.A. No. 2021-0224 (Del. Ch.). Plaintiffs named as defendants INNOVATE Corp. (f/k/a HC2 Holdings, Inc.), HC2 Broadcasting Holdings, Inc., HC2 Broadcasting Inc., and Continental General Insurance Corporation (the “INNOVATE Entities”) and certain current and former officers and directors of the INNOVATE Entities and DTV, including Philip Falcone, Michael Sena, Wayne Barr, Jr., Les Levi, Paul Voigt, Ivan Minkov, and Paul Robinson (the “Individual Defendants”). Plaintiffs principally allege that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties and/or aided and abetted breaches of fiduciary duty by participating in a “scheme” in which the INNOVATE Entities (i) acquired majority voting and operating control over DTV; (ii) exploited that control to misappropriate DTV’s assets and business opportunities for the benefit of the INNOVATE Entities; and (iii) purchased DTV stock at a discount to fair value and diminished the value of DTV stock options. Plaintiffs allege that the Individual Defendants (i) “prompted” the INNOVATE Entities to purchase more than 100 low-power television (“LPTV”) broadcast stations originally identified for potential acquisition by DTV, (ii) allowed the INNOVATE Entities to misappropriate DTV technology, known as “DTV Cast,” (iii) caused DTV to transfer unspecified LPTV broadcasting station licenses to INNOVATE affiliates “without paying any value,” and (iv) transferred to the INNOVATE Entities unspecified DTV broadcasting stations that had been “repacked” by the FCC. Defendants moved to dismiss the Complaint on May 19, 2021. On June 23, 2021, plaintiffs amended their complaint. In the amended complaint, plaintiffs assert the same claims they asserted in their initial complaint, added a claim for waste associated with DTV’s purported transfer of licenses and construction permits for less than fair value, and dropped Paul Robinson as a defendant. Defendants moved to dismiss the amended complaint in its entirety on August 25, 2021, and the parties completed briefing on the motions to dismiss on November 10, 2021. The Court heard argument on the motions to dismiss on March 29, 2022. On June 28, 2022, the Court requested that the parties submit supplemental briefing on the motions to dismiss by July 20, 2022. The parties completed the supplemental briefing on July 20, 2022.

On October 28, 2022, the Court issued a Memorandum Opinion on Defendants’ motion to dismiss the Complaint. First, the Court dismissed all claims against Continental General Insurance Corporation for lack of personal jurisdiction. Second, the Court dismissed all claims the stockholder plaintiffs purported to assert directly. Third, the Court dismissed as time-barred all claims challenging conduct that occurred before March 15, 2018, including claims challenging (i) the November 2017 acquisition of Azteca America by INNOVATE; (ii) INNOVATE’s purported usurpation of the so-called “DTV Cast” technology; and (iii) the WFWC-CD Station acquisition. Fourth, the Court dismissed claims associated with the INNOVATE Entities’ purported purchases of unidentified broadcasting stations. Fifth, the Court dismissed all claims challenging the Expense Sharing Agreement, and the Right to Use Agreement between INNOVATE and DTV, and certain Stock-Based Compensation Agreements. Sixth, the Court dismissed the aiding and abetting claim against the INNOVATE Entities. Seventh, the Court dismissed the civil conspiracy claim as to all defendants. Lastly, the Court dismissed the option-holders’ claim for tortious interference with prospective business opportunities. Thus, after the Court issued its October 28, 2022 Memorandum Opinion, the only claims to survive Defendants’ motion to dismiss are (i) a derivative claim against the INNOVATE Entities (other than Continental General), Levi, and Falcone for breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the $0.1 million Frank Digital acquisition; (ii) a derivative claim for breach of fiduciary duty against the INNOVATE Entities (other than Continental General), in their capacities as DTV’s controlling stockholders, relating to the sale of six licenses (for less than $0.5 million) in connection with the Gray Media sale; (iii) a derivative claim for breach of fiduciary duty against the INNOVATE Entities (other than Continental General) and Levi in connection with the transfer of licenses ultimately sold to TV-49 for $0.1 million; and (iv) a derivative claim for waste against Levi and Falcone in connection with the sale of two stations to Lowcountry, which Lowcountry later sold for $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively. The Company believes these remaining claims are without merit, and the Company intends to vigorously defend this litigation.

Marin Hospital Replacement Litigation

On October 20, 2022, McCarthy Building Companies, Inc. (“McCarthy”) filed suit against Schuff Steel Company (“Schuff”), a subsidiary of DBMG, and Quality Assurance Engineering, Inc. dba Consolidated Engineering Laboratories (“CEL”) in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Marin, styled McCarthy Building Companies, Inc. v. Schuff Steel Company; Quality Engineering, Inc. dba Consolidated Engineering Laboratories, et al., Case No. CIV2203963 (the “Action”). In the Action, McCarthy alleges damages and delays caused by alleged failures in fabrication, erection, welding, and quality control by Schuff and improper quality assurance responsibilities by CEL on the Marin General Hospital Replacement Building (the “Project”). McCarthy asserts claims against Schuff for breach of contract, express indemnity, breach of express warranties, negligence, equitable implied indemnity, breach of implied warranties, and declaratory relief. On February 13, 2023, Schuff filed its response denying liability to McCarthy and asserting a Cross-Complaint against McCarthy, and other companies involved in the design, construction, and quality assurance, who potentially are liable for damages and delays alleged by McCarthy on the Project. In the Cross-Complaint, Schuff asserts claims for breach of contract, violation of statute, equitable indemnity apportionment, and contribution and express indemnity (the “Cross-Complaint”). Schuff intends to vigorously defend this Action and aggressively pursue the Cross-Complaint and cannot reasonably estimate any range of potential loss at this time.

Preferred Shares

The Company’s preferred shares authorized, issued and outstanding consisted of the following:

	September 30, 2023	December 31, 2022

Series A-3 shares issued and outstanding	6,125	6,125
Series A-4 shares issued and outstanding	10,000	10,000

Series A-3 and Series A-4 Shares

Issuance and Conversion. On July 1, 2021 (the "Exchange Date") as a part of the sale of Continental Insurance Group ("CIG"), INNOVATE entered into an exchange agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") with Continental General Insurance Company ("CGIC"), also a former subsidiary, which held the remaining shares of the Series A and Series A-2 Preferred Stock and was eliminated in consolidation prior to the sale of the Company's former Insurance segment on July 1, 2021. Per the Exchange Agreement, INNOVATE exchanged 6,125 shares of the Series A and 10,000 shares of the Series A-2 shares that CGIC held for an equivalent number of Series A-3 Convertible Participating Preferred Stock ("Series A-3") and Series A-4 Convertible Participating Preferred Stock ("Series A-4"), respectively. The terms remained substantially the same, except that the Series A-3 and Series A-4 will mature on July 1, 2026. A cash payment of $0.3 million was made as a part of the exchange for accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series A and Series A-2 being exchanged.

Upon issuance of the Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock on July 1, 2021, the Series A-3 and Series A-4 have been classified as temporary equity in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet with a combined redemption value of $16.1 million and with a current fair value of $16.7 million as of September 30, 2023.

Dividends. The Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock accrue a cumulative quarterly cash dividend at an annualized rate of 7.50%. The accrued values of the Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock accrete quarterly at an annualized rate of 4.00% that is reduced to 2.00% or 0.0% if the Company achieves specified rates of growth measured by increases in its net asset value; provided, that the accreting dividend rate will be 7.25% in the event that (A) the daily volume weighted average price ("VWAP") of the Company's common stock is less than a certain threshold amount, (B) the Company's common stock is not registered under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (C) the Company's common stock is not listed on certain national securities exchanges or the Company is delinquent in the payment of any cash dividends. The Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock is also entitled to participate in cash and in-kind distributions to holders of shares of Company's common stock on an as-converted basis.

Subsequent Measurement. The Company elected to account for the Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock by immediately recognizing changes in the redemption value as they occur. The carrying values of the Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock are adjusted to equal what the redemption amount would be as if the redemption were to occur at the end of the reporting period as if it were also the redemption date for the Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock. Any cash dividends paid directly reduce the carrying value of the Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock until the carrying value equals the redemption value. The Company has a history of paying dividends on its preferred stock and expects to continue to pay such dividends each quarter.

Optional Conversion. Each share of Series A-3 and Series A-4 may be converted by the holder into shares of the Company's common stock at any time based on the then-applicable Conversion Price. Each share of Series A-3 is initially convertible at a conversion price of $4.25 (as it may be adjusted from time to time, the "Series A-3 Conversion Price"), and each share of Series A-4 is initially convertible at a conversion price of $8.25 (as it may be adjusted from time to time, the "Series A-4 Conversion Price") (“collectively the “Conversion Prices”). The Conversion Prices are subject to adjustment for dividends, certain distributions, stock splits, combinations, reclassifications, reorganizations, mergers, recapitalizations and similar events, as well as in connection with issuances of equity or equity-linked or other comparable securities by the Company at a price per share (or with a conversion or exercise price or effective issue price) that is below the Conversion Prices’ (which adjustment shall be made on a weighted average basis). Actual conversion prices at the time of the exchange were $3.52 for the Series A and $5.33 for the Series A-2.

Redemption by the Holders / Automatic Conversion. On July 1, 2026, holders of the Series A-3 and Series A-4 shall be entitled to cause the Company to redeem the Series A-3 and Series A-4 at the accrued value per share plus accrued but unpaid dividends (to the extent not included in the accrued value of Series A-3 and Series A-4). Each share of Series A-3 and Series A-4 that is not so redeemed will be automatically converted into shares of the Company's common stock at the Conversion Price then in effect.

Upon a change of control (as defined in each Certificate of Designation) holders of the Series A-3 and Series A-4 shall be entitled to cause the Company to redeem their shares of Series A-3 and Series A-4 at a price per share of Series A-3 and Series A-4 equal to the greater of (i) the accrued value of the Series A-3 and Series A-4, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends (to the extent not included in the accrued value of Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock), and (ii) the value that would be received if the share of Series A-3 and Series A-4 were converted into shares of the Company's common stock immediately prior to the change of control.

Redemption by the Company / "Company Call Option". At any time, the Company may redeem the Series A-3/Series A-4, in whole but not in part, at a price per share generally equal to 150% of the accrued value per share, plus accrued but unpaid dividends (to the extent not included in the accrued value of the Series A-3/Series A-4), subject to the holder's right to convert prior to such redemption.

Forced Conversion. The Company may force conversion of the Series A-3 and Series A-4 into shares of the Company's common stock if the common stock's thirty-day VWAP exceeds 150% of the then-applicable Conversion Price and the Common Stock’s daily VWAP exceeds 150% of the then-applicable Conversion Price for at least twenty trading days out of the thirty trading day period used to calculate the thirty-day VWAP. In the event of a forced conversion, the holders of Series A-3 and Series A-4 will have the ability to elect cash settlement in lieu of conversion if certain market liquidity thresholds for the Company's common stock are not achieved.

Liquidation Preference. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company (any such event, a “Liquidation Event”), the holders of Series A-3 and Series A-4 will be entitled to receive per share the greater of (i) the accrued value of the Series A-3 and Series A-4, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends (to the extent not included in the accrued value of Series A-3 and Series A-4), and (ii) the value that would be received if the share of Series A-4 and Series A-4 were converted into shares of the Company's common stock immediately prior to such occurrence. The Series A-3 and Series A-4 will rank junior to any existing or future indebtedness but senior to the Company's common stock and any future equity securities other than any future senior or pari passu preferred stock issued in compliance with each Certificate of Designation. The Series A-3 Preferred Stock and the Series A-4 Preferred Stock rank at parity.

Voting Rights. Except as required by applicable law, the holders of the shares of the Series A-3 and Series A-4 will be entitled to vote on an as-converted basis with the holders of the Company’s common stock on all matters submitted to a vote of the holders of the Company's common stock with the holders of Series A-3 Preferred Stock and Series A-4 Preferred Stock on certain matters, and separately as a class on certain limited matters.

Consent Rights. For so long as any of the Series A-3 and Series A-4 is outstanding, consent of the holders of shares representing at least 75% of certain of the Series A-3 and Series A-4 then outstanding is required for certain material actions.

Participation Rights. Pursuant to the securities purchase agreements entered into with the initial purchasers of the Series A-3 Preferred Stock and the Series A-4 Preferred Stock, subject to meeting certain ownership thresholds, certain purchasers of the Series A-3 Preferred Stock and the Series A-4 Preferred Stock are entitled to participate, on a pro-rata basis in accordance with their ownership percentage, determined on an as-converted basis, in issuances of equity and equity linked securities by the Company. In addition, subject to meeting certain ownership thresholds, certain initial purchasers of the Series A-3 Preferred Stock and the Series A-4 Preferred Stock will be entitled to participate in issuances of preferred securities and in debt transactions of the Company.

As of September 30, 2023, Series A-3 Preferred Stock and Series A-4 Preferred Stock were convertible into 1,740,700 and 1,875,533 shares, respectively, of INNOVATE's common stock.

DBMGi Series A Preferred Stock

Issuance. On November 30, 2018, Continental General Insurance Company (“CGIC”) purchased 40,000 shares of DBMGi's Series A Fixed-to-Floating Rate Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “DBMGi Preferred Stock”), which was then eliminated in consolidation. On July 1, 2021, as a part of the sale of Continental Insurance Group ("CIG") which resulted in the deconsolidation of the entity, the Company was deemed to have issued $40.9 million of DBMGi Series A Preferred Stock to the then deconsolidated CGIC. Upon the deemed issuance of the DBMGi Series A Preferred Stock on July 1, 2021, the DBMGi Series A Preferred Stock was classified as temporary equity in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. There are 500,000 shares with a par value of $0.001 each authorized for issuance. Subsequent to the issuance of the DBMGi Preferred Stock, 1,820.25 shares were issued as payment in kind for dividends, resulting in a total of 41,820.25 shares of DBMGi's Series A Preferred Stock outstanding.

Redemption. The DBMGi Preferred Stock is redeemable at any time, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company, or at any time or by the holder prior to July 2026. On March 15, 2023, DBMGi received a redemption notice from CGIC requesting that DBMGi redeem 41,820.25 shares of DBMGi Preferred Stock, representing all of the issued and outstanding shares of DBMGi Preferred Stock, within 60 days of the notice, or by May 15, 2023. On May 9, 2023, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement and Subordinated Unsecured Promissory Note with CGIC whereby INNOVATE purchased the 41,820.25 shares of DBMGi Preferred Stock for full satisfaction of the redemption notice. In full consideration of the DBMGi Preferred Stock as well as the accrued dividend of $0.4 million, the Company paid CGIC $7.1 million on May 9, 2023, and issued a subordinated unsecured promissory note to CGIC in the principal amount of $35.1 million. The promissory note is due February 28, 2026, and bears interest at 9% per annum through May 8, 2024, 16% per annum from May 9, 2024 to May 8, 2025, and 32% per annum thereafter. Refer to Note 11. Debt Obligations for additional information on the promissory note.

The DBMGi Series A Preferred Stock was measured each reporting period at its maximum redemption value, which was equal to the stated value plus all accrued, accumulated and unpaid dividends as of the end of each reporting period, as they were currently redeemable. The carrying amount as of May 9, 2023 was $41.8 million as well as the accrued dividend of $0.4 million and subsequently there was no gain or loss on the purchase of the DBMGi Preferred Stock from CGIC.

Dividends. The DBMGi Series A Preferred Stock accrued a cumulative quarterly cash or payment in kind dividend at a rate of (a) for the first five years following the date of issuance, (i) 9.00% per annum if dividends are paid in kind or (ii) 8.25% per annum if dividends are paid in cash and (b) starting on the fifth anniversary of the date of issuance, a rate per annum equal to (i) LIBOR (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) plus a spread of 5.85% (together, the “LIBOR Rate”) per annum, plus 0.75% if dividends are paid in kind or (ii) the LIBOR Rate per annum in the case of dividends paid in cash. Subsequent to the transition away from LIBOR beginning in 2023, the Certificate of Designation allows for a LIBOR Successor Rate, which allows the Company to reasonably determine an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmarks (if any) incorporated therein) giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks. Subsequent to May 9, 2023, the date that INNOVATE purchased the DBMGi Preferred Stock, the dividends are eliminated on consolidation. The dividends and equivalent amounts paid (excluding amounts eliminated on consolidation) are presented in the following tables (in millions):

2023

Declaration Date and Holders of Record Date	March 31, 2023		May 9, 2023 *
Payment Date	April 17, 2023		May 9, 2023 *
Total Dividend	$	0.9	$	0.4

*In connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement entered into with CGIC on May 9, 2023, an equivalent amount to the dividends that had accrued through May 8, 2023 was paid to CGIC on May 9, 2023 as part of the purchase price. $0.1 million was paid in cash and $0.3 million was included in the principal amount of the new unsecured note that was issued on May 9, 2023. The dividends that accrued for the remaining portion of those periods were eliminated on consolidation subsequent to the purchase.

Redeemable Non-Controlling Interest

The Company has redeemable non-controlling interests related to R2 Technologies in the form of convertible preferred stock that is redeemable upon the occurrence of a change in control, as defined in the respective agreements, i.e., an event that is not solely within the control of the Company and is, therefore, classified outside of permanent equity in the mezzanine section of the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company adjusts the carrying value of these redeemable non-controlling interests based on an allocation of subsidiary earnings (losses) based on ownership interests. As of September 30, 2023, it is not deemed probable that the non-controlling interest will become redeemable as no change in control has occurred or is expected to occur; therefore, no additional adjustment or remeasurement is required under ASC 480-10. As a result of allocation of losses in accordance with ASC 810, the redeemable non-controlling interest related to R2 was negative $8.4 million and negative $3.8 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

R2 Technologies - Liquidation Preference

R2 Technologies has issued multiple A, B, and C-series participating convertible preferred stock (the "R2 Preferred Shares"), all of which contain a liquidation preference. In the event of a liquidation event, each Preferred Share has a liquidation preference to be paid out of the assets legally available for distribution, which entitles the holder of each R2 Preferred Share to receive, before any payments to holders of junior securities, the sum of the following: (i) the accrued value in cash; (ii) all accrued and unpaid dividends, including basic dividends and accreting dividends, if any, and (iii) an amount, in cash or otherwise, equivalent to what the holder would receive if they had converted the R2 Preferred Shares into R2 common stock or reference property just before the liquidation event.

If the assets of R2 legally available for distribution are insufficient to pay these obligations in full, R2 Preferred Shareholders and holders of any parity securities share the remaining assets in proportion to the full respective amounts to which they are entitled. After receiving the full liquidation preference, R2 Preferred Shareholders have no further claim to R2's assets, except for any new securities or instruments received as part of the liquidation preference. The value of non-cash assets distributed equals their fair market value on the distribution date. No holder of junior securities receives any payment unless the entire liquidation preference of R2 Preferred Shares is paid. If there is insufficient cash to pay the entire liquidation preference and any liquidation preference in respect of any parity securities in full in cash upon a liquidation event, R2 Preferred Shareholders and parity securities holders will share available cash proportionally.

R2 Technologies' total liquidation preference upon a hypothetical liquidation event, including the liquidation preference for Pansend Life Sciences, LLC was $110.2 million and $104.0 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, of which $47.1 million and $44.5 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, was attributable to redeemable non-controlling interests, inclusive of initial preferred stock and unpaid accreted dividends. However, as of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, R2 Technologies had negative net assets after consideration of intercompany and third party debt, and, therefore, there would be no legally available funds to satisfy such liquidation preferences upon a hypothetical liquidation event.

Stockholders’ Rights Agreement - Tax Benefits Preservation Plan

On August 30, 2021, the Company entered into a Tax Benefits Preservation Plan (the “Preservation Plan”) with Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as Rights Agent. The Preservation Plan is designed to protect the Company’s ability to use its tax net operating losses and certain other tax assets (“Tax Benefits”) by deterring an “ownership change” as defined under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Treasury Regulations thereunder (the “Code”). If any person or group acquires 4.9% or more of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock (subject to certain exceptions), there would be a triggering event under the Preservation Plan which could result in significant dilution in the ownership interest of such person or group. As such, the Preservation Plan has anti-takeover effects. In connection with the adoption of the Preservation Plan, the Company disclosed that given the change-over in the Company’s stock over the past several years, the Company was approaching the risk of losing its Tax Benefits. The Preservation Plan terminated on March 31, 2023.

On April 1, 2023, as a result of the expiration of the Preservation Plan on March 31, 2023, the Company entered into a new Tax Benefits Preservation Plan (the “2023 Plan”) with Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as rights agent (the “Rights Agent”), and the Board of Directors of the Company declared a dividend distribution of one right (a “Right”) for each outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) to stockholders of record at the close of business on April 10, 2023 (the “Record Date”). Each Right is governed by the terms of the Plan and entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company a unit consisting of one one-thousandth of a share (a “Unit”) of Series B Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), at a purchase price of $15.00 per Unit, subject to adjustment (the “Purchase Price”).

Rights Certificates and Exercise Period

Initially, the Rights will be attached to all Common Stock certificates representing shares then outstanding, and no separate rights certificates (“Rights Certificates”) will be distributed. Subject to certain exceptions specified in the 2023 Plan, the Rights will separate from the Common Stock then outstanding and a distribution date (the “Distribution Date”) will occur upon the earlier of (i) 10 business days following a public announcement that a person or group of affiliated or associated persons (an “Acquiring Person”) has become the beneficial owner of 4.9% or more of the shares of the Common Stock (the “Stock Acquisition Date”) and (ii) 10 business days (or such later date as the Board shall determine) following the commencement of a tender offer or exchange offer that would result in a person or group becoming an Acquiring Person.

18. Basic and Diluted Loss Per Common Share

Earnings (loss) per share ("EPS") is calculated using the two-class method, which allocates earnings among common stock and participating securities to calculate EPS when an entity's capital structure includes either two or more classes of common stock or common stock and participating securities. Unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities. As such, shares of any unvested restricted stock of the Company are considered participating securities; however, they do not participate in losses and as such are excluded from the computation of basic earnings (loss) per share during periods of net losses. The dilutive effect, if applicable, of stock options and their equivalents (including non-vested stock issued under stock-based compensation plans), is computed using the "if-converted method" if this measurement is determined to be more dilutive between the two available methods in a period.

The Company had no dilutive common stock equivalents during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 due to the results from continuing operations being a loss, net of tax. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, 816,524 and 1,039,513, respectively, of common stock equivalents from unvested restricted stock were excluded from the weighted average number of shares used to calculate diluted loss per share as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. Other instruments that may, in the future, if the average market price of the Company's stock exceeds the conversion prices, have a dilutive effect on earnings per share, but were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 are: preferred stock, convertible debt and stock options. The following table presents a reconciliation of net loss used in the basic and diluted EPS calculations (in millions, except per share amounts):

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with the consolidated annual audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 14, 2023 (the "2022 Annual Report") and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. You should review the "Risk Factors" section in our 2022 Annual Report as well as the section below entitled "Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" for a discussion of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis.

Unless the context otherwise requires, in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, "INNOVATE" means INNOVATE Corp. and the "Company," "we" and "our" mean INNOVATE together with its consolidated subsidiaries. "U.S. GAAP" means accounting principles accepted in the United States of America.

Our Business and Our Operations

We are a diversified holding company with principal operations conducted through three operating platforms or reportable segments: Infrastructure ("DBMG"), Life Sciences ("Pansend"), and Spectrum, plus our Other segment, which includes businesses that do not meet the separately reportable segment thresholds.

For additional information on our business, refer to Note 1. Organization and Business to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Cyclical Patterns

Our segments' operations can be highly cyclical. Our volume of business in our Infrastructure segment may be adversely affected by declines or delays in projects, which may vary by geographic region. Project schedules, particularly in connection with large, complex, and longer-term projects can also create fluctuations in the services provided, which may adversely affect us in any given period.

For example, in connection with larger, more complicated projects, the timing of obtaining permits and other approvals may be delayed, and we may need to maintain a portion of our workforce and equipment in an underutilized capacity to ensure we are strategically positioned to deliver on such projects when they move forward.

Examples of other items that may cause our results or demand for our services to fluctuate materially from quarter to quarter include: weather or project site conditions; financial condition of our customers and their access to capital; margins of projects performed during any particular period; rising interest rates and inflation; and economic, political and market conditions on a regional, national or global scale.

Accordingly, our operating results in any particular period may not be indicative of the results that can be expected for any other period.

Recent Developments

On July 23, 2023, we announced the unexpected passing of Wayne Barr, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Director. Mr. Barr had served as a director of INNOVATE since January 2014 and as CEO since November 2020. He previously served as Lead Director during March 2020 and as Interim CEO from June 2020 until November 2020 when he was appointed as the Company's permanent President and CEO. During his tenure as a director of INNOVATE, he has also served as Chair and/or as a member of several of the Board committees and as a director and/or officer of certain INNOVATE subsidiaries. Following Mr. Barr’s death, on July 25, 2023, Paul K. Voigt was named Interim Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Mr. Voigt has served as Senior Managing Director of Investments at Lancer Capital since 2019. From 2014 to 2018, Mr. Voigt served as Senior Managing Director of Investments of the Company and was involved with sourcing deals and capital raising for the Company.

On September 21, 2023, INNOVATE entered into a separation and release agreement with Suzi Herbst, our Chief Operating Officer. Pursuant to the agreement. Ms. Herbst's employment with the Company ceased on October 20, 2023 and the Company will pay Ms. Herbst severance payments and benefits.

We continually evaluate strategic and business alternatives within our operating segments, which may include the following: operating, growing or acquiring additional assets or businesses related to current or historical operations; or winding down or selling our existing operations. In the longer-term, we may evaluate opportunities to acquire assets or businesses unrelated to our current or historical operations. In the event we were to enter into a strategic transaction to sell any of our existing operations, our intention is to use the available proceeds to pay down Broadcasting's Secured Notes.

Thus far in 2023, as part of our strategic process, we engaged in several transactions that had an effect on the results of operations and financial condition of our business and individual segments.

Equity Method Investments

In November 2022, MediBeacon amended its existing agreements with Huadong Medicine Co. Ltd ("Huadong"), to provide approximately $10 million in the first half of 2023, including $7.5 million or 50% of the remaining $15 million milestone investment due upon FDA approval of MediBeacon's TGFR at a pre-money valuation of approximately $400 million. On February 23, 2023, pursuant to its amended commercial partnership with Huadong, a publicly traded company on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, MediBeacon issued $7.5 million of its preferred stock to Huadong in exchange for additional shares of preferred stock. As a result of this equity transaction, Pansend recognized a gain of $3.8 million in Other income (expense), net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, which increased Pansend's basis in MediBeacon. Concurrently, Pansend recognized additional equity method losses of $3.8 million which were previously unrecognized because Pansend's carrying amount of its investment in MediBeacon had been previously reduced to zero. 

On August 31, 2023 and September 13, 2023, Pansend issued $0.5 million and $0.5 million 12% convertible notes due September 2026 to MediBeacon, increasing the total outstanding principal amounts owed by MediBeacon to Pansend to $6.0 million. As a result of the additional $1.0 million 12% convertible notes issuances, Pansend recognized an additional $1.0 million of equity method losses which were previously unrecognized because Pansend's carrying amount of its investment in MediBeacon had been previously reduced to zero.

Subsequent to quarter end, on October 25, 2023, Pansend, issued an additional $0.8 million 12% convertible note to MediBeacon which is due October 24, 2026.

On December 30, 2022, the Company entered into a letter agreement with CGIC pursuant to which CGIC and its affiliates agreed to vote certain shares of the Company’s Series A-3 Convertible Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, and the Company’s Series A-4 Convertible Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, to the extent such shares result in CGIC beneficially owning more than 9.9% of the aggregate voting power of the Company, in the same manner as the majority of the holders holding less than 10% of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, vote their shares with respect to any matter pursuant to which such shares are entitled to vote.

Stockholders' Rights Agreement

On April 1, 2023, the Company entered into a Tax Benefits Preservation Plan (the "Plan") with ComputerShare Trust Company, N.A., as rights agent (the "Rights Agent"). The Plan is intended to help protect the Company's ability to use its tax net operating losses and other certain tax assets ("Tax Benefits") by deterring an "ownership change," as defined under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Treasury Regulations thereunder (the "Code"), by a person or group of affiliated or associated persons from acquiring beneficial ownership of 4.9% or more of the outstanding common shares.

In connection with entering into the Plan, on April 1, 2023 the Board of Directors of the Company declared a dividend distribution of one right (a “Right”) for each outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) to stockholders of record at the close of business on April 10, 2023 (the “Record Date”). Each Right is governed by the terms of the Plan and entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company a unit consisting of one one-thousandth of a share (a “Unit”) of Series B Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), at a purchase price of $15.00 per Unit, subject to adjustment (the “Purchase Price”). The Company had entered into a previous Tax Benefits Preservation Plan on August 30, 2021 (the “Prior Plan”), in order to help protect the Company’s ability to use its Tax Benefits by deterring an ownership change. The Prior Plan expired on March 31, 2023.

On June 15, 2023, holders of the Company’s Common Stock and Preferred Stock, voting as a single class and with the Preferred Stock voting on an as-converted basis, voted to ratify the amendment of the Tax Benefit Preservation Plan adopted by the Board of Directors on April 1, 2023, to extend the Final Expiration Date from October 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024, or such later date and time as may be subsequently approved.

Revenue: Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $47.7 million to $375.3 million from $423.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by our Infrastructure segment, and, to a lesser extent, our Spectrum segment. The decrease at our Infrastructure segment was primarily driven by timing and size of projects, mostly from DBMG's commercial structural steel fabrication and erection business, as well as the industrial maintenance and repair business, while revenues at our Spectrum segment decreased primarily as a result of the termination of Network and its associated Azteca content on December 31, 2022.

Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $166.0 million to $1,062.0 million from $1,228.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by our Infrastructure segment, and, to a lesser extent, our Spectrum segment. DBMG's commercial structural steel fabrication and erection business encountered customer and general contractor driven delays, resulting in the timing of work performed by DBMG to be delayed in the current period and lower revenue at the industrial maintenance and repair business. Revenues at our Spectrum segment decreased primarily as a result of the termination of Network and its associated Azteca content on December 31, 2022.

38

Income from operations: Income from operations for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased $4.1 million to $10.7 million from $6.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was due to a decrease in depreciation and amortization and a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A"), which was partially offset by an increase in other operating expense. The overall decrease in depreciation and amortization was driven by Banker Steel, as certain intangibles were fully amortized subsequent to the comparable period. The overall decrease in SG&A was primarily driven by the decreases in bonus expense, salaries and benefits, as well as research and development costs and marketing costs as a result of cost reduction initiatives at our Life Sciences segment, as well as decreases at Spectrum from the termination of Network in December 2022, which were partially offset by an accounts receivable write-off of $2.2 million related to a customer bankruptcy and $1.1 million in restructuring costs primarily related to a foreign office closure in the current period at our Infrastructure segment. The overall increase in other operating expenses was driven by our Spectrum segment as a result of a decrease in FCC reimbursements received and impairment charges recorded in the current period related to certain redundant equipment and associated capitalized costs.

Income from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased $5.6 million to $12.5 million from $6.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was due to decreases in depreciation and amortization, SG&A, and other operating expenses, which were partially offset by a net decrease in gross profit. The net decrease in depreciation and amortization was driven by Banker Steel, as certain intangible assets were fully amortized subsequent to the comparable period, and certain capitalized internal-use software included in PP&E within DBMG's commercial structural steel fabrication and erection business became fully depreciated subsequent to the comparable period. The net decrease in SG&A was primarily driven by the termination of Network at our Spectrum segment, decreases in compensation-related expenses as well as research and development and marketing costs at our Life Sciences segment, and decreases in SG&A expenses at our Non-Operating Corporate segment, which was partially offset by an accounts receivable write-off of $2.2 million related to a customer bankruptcy, $2.1 million in restructuring costs primarily related to a foreign office closure in the current period, and increases in compensation-related expenses at our Infrastructure segment, as well as an increase in expenses at our Other segment as a result of the sale of New Saxon's 19% investment in HMN. The net decrease in other operating expenses was driven by our Spectrum segment which impaired the Network PLA intangible in the comparable period which was partially offset by impairment charges recorded in the current period related to certain redundant equipment and associated capitalized costs and a decrease in FCC reimbursements received. The decrease in gross profit was primarily driven by our Spectrum segment's termination of Network, which was partially offset by an increase at Station group, which launched new markets and networks with its customers in the current period, and was also partially offset by an increase in gross profit at our Infrastructure segment driven by timing of higher margin projects.

Interest expense: Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased $3.8 million to $17.1 million from $13.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to higher interest rates, increased amortization of debt issuance costs on the debt, and higher outstanding principal balances at all segments, as a result of new debt issued subsequent to the comparable period.

Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased $10.6 million to $49.0 million from $38.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to higher interest rates, increased amortization of debt issuance costs on the debt, and higher outstanding principal balances at all segments, as a result of new debt issued subsequent to the comparable period.

Loss from equity investees: Loss from equity investees for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased $0.4 million to $1.5 million from $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in loss was primarily driven by the sale of our investment in HMN on March 6, 2023, which had income in the prior period, as well as higher equity method losses recorded from our investment in Triple Ring. This was partially offset by lower equity method losses from our investment in MediBeacon, as a result of suspended losses due to the investment's carrying amount being reduced to zero.

Loss from equity investees for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased $3.7 million to $5.8 million from $2.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in loss was primarily driven by our previous investment in HMN, which was sold on March 6, 2023, and had losses for the approximately two months of ownership in the current period, compared to net income for the nine months in the comparable period, as well as higher equity method losses in the current period from our investment in Triple Ring as a result of an unrepeated gain on debt extinguishment recognized by Triple Ring in the comparable period. This was partially offset by lower equity method losses from our investment in MediBeacon, as a result of suspended losses due to the investment's carrying amount being reduced to zero.

Other income (expense), net: Other income (expense), net for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased $1.3 million to income of $0.4 million from other expense of $0.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Other income, net for the three months ended September 30, 2023 primarily consisted of foreign currency translation gains from our Infrastructure segment.

Other income, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased $16.7 million to $17.2 million from $0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Other income, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 primarily consisted of a gain on the sale of our equity investment in HMN of $12.2 million and a $3.8 million step-up gain from the increase in Pansend's basis as a result of MediBeacon issuing $7.5 million of its preferred stock to Huadong. Refer to Note 6. Investments of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference for additional information. Additionally contributing to Other income, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 is foreign currency translation gains from our Infrastructure segment and interest income earned on certain investments and receivables.

Income tax (expense) benefit: Income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased $3.1 million to $1.1 million from a $2.0 million benefit for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased $1.6 million to $3.2 million from $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily driven by the net tax savings of $2.9 million from the CGIC consolidation on the 2021 tax return, which resulted in a partial release of the valuation in the comparable period. The income tax expense recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 primarily relates to the tax expense as calculated under ASC 740 for taxpaying entities. Additionally, the tax benefits associated with losses generated by the INNOVATE Corp. U.S. consolidated income tax return and certain other businesses have been reduced by a full valuation allowance as we do not believe it is more-likely-than not that the losses will be utilized prior to expiration. The annual effective tax rate calculated for the interim tax provision includes a $1.1 million net tax benefit, consisting of a current tax expense of $4.4 million related to foreign tax payment and a deferred tax benefit of $5.5 million related to the reversal of the deferred tax liability associated with the $11.3 million put option agreement, both of which were related to the sale of New Saxon's 19% investment in HMN on March 6, 2023.

In the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, other operating (income) loss includes: (i) (gain) loss on sale or disposal of assets; (ii) lease termination costs; (iii) asset impairment expense; (iv) accretion of asset retirement obligations; and (v) FCC reimbursements. Each table summarizes the results of operations of our operating segments and compares the amount of the change between the periods presented (in millions).

Revenue: Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $43.4 million to $369.3 million from $412.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by the timing and size of projects at DBMG's commercial structural steel fabrication and erection business and lower revenue at the industrial maintenance and repair business. This was partially offset by an increase at Banker Steel and the construction modeling and detailing business due to timing and size of projects.

Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $153.6 million to $1,043.4 million from $1,197.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

The decrease was primarily driven by DBMG's commercial structural steel fabrication and erection business, which encountered customer and general contractor driven delays, resulting in the timing of work performed by DBMG to be delayed in the current period as well as the industrial maintenance and repair business. This was partially offset by an increase at Banker Steel and the construction modeling and detailing business due to timing and size of projects.

Selling, general and administrative: Selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased $2.7 million to $32.9 million from $30.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily driven by an accounts receivable write-off of $2.2 million related to a customer bankruptcy, and a foreign office closure in the current period, as well as an increase in salaries and benefit expenses, which was partially offset by a decrease in professional fees.

Selling, general and administrative expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased $6.2 million to $93.3 million from $87.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Revenue: Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $0.6 million to $0.6 million from $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in revenue was attributable to R2, primarily as a result of fewer sales of units and consumables outside the U.S., which was partially offset by an increase in upfront unit sales in the US.

Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $1.2 million to $1.8 million from $3.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in revenue was attributable to R2, primarily as a result of fewer unit sales outside the U.S. due to payment delays resulting in shipping holds, which was partially offset by an increase in upfront unit sales in the US coupled with increased recurring revenues from consumable and subscription programs.

Cost of revenue: Cost of revenue for three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $0.5 million to $0.5 million from $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Cost of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $1.1 million to $1.4 million from $2.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in cost of revenue was attributable to R2, driven by a reduction in revenue.

Selling, general and administrative: Selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $2.3 million to $3.3 million from $5.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

Revenue: Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $3.7 million to $5.4 million from $9.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $11.2 million to $16.8 million from $28.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by the elimination of advertising revenues at Azteca, which ceased operations on December 31, 2022. This was partially offset by an increase in station revenues, which launched new markets and networks with its customers in the current period.

Cost of revenue: Cost of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $1.9 million to $3.0 million from $4.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Cost of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $5.7 million to $8.9 million from $14.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The overall decrease was primarily driven by a decrease in advertising cost of revenue as a result of the termination of Azteca.

Selling, general and administrative: Selling, general and administrative for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $1.2 million to $2.8 million from $4.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by the termination of Network, which was partially offset by an increase in severance expense at station group.

Selling, general and administrative expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $4.7 million to $7.1 million from $11.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by the termination of Network, which was partially offset by an increase in employee-related costs and severance expense at station group

Depreciation and amortization: Depreciation and amortization expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $0.5 million to $3.9 million from $4.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by the Program License Agreement ("PLA"), which was fully impaired in the comparable period.

Other operating loss (income): Other operating loss (income) for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $1.0 million to a loss of $0.4 million from income of $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily related to a decrease in FCC reimbursements received and asset impairment charges recorded in the current period related to certain redundant equipment and associated capitalized costs.

Other operating loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $1.2 million to $0.1 million from $1.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in loss was primarily related to the impairment of the PLA intangible in the comparable period, which was partially offset by asset impairment charges recorded in the current period related to certain redundant equipment and associated capitalized costs and a decrease in FCC reimbursements received.

Selling, general and administrative: Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $0.7 million to $4.8 million from $5.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in SG&A expenses was driven by severance related to the Company's former Chief Legal Officer accrued for in the prior period, a decrease in legal expenses, a decrease in bonus expense, and a decrease in salaries and benefits from a reduced headcount. The decreases were partially offset by severance related to the Company's former Chief Operating Officer accrued for in the current period and increased stock-based compensation expense from the acceleration of awards related to our former CEO.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $2.4 million to $12.6 million from $15.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in SG&A expenses was driven by severance related to the Company's former Chief Legal Officer accrued in the prior period, a decrease in legal expenses, a decrease in bonus expense, a decrease in disposition and acquisition expenses and a decrease in salaries and benefits from a reduced headcount, as well as other unrepeated expenses related to the settlement with a former Chief Executive Officer recorded in the comparable period. The decreases were partially offset by severance related to the Company's former Chief Operating Officer accrued in the current period and increased stock-based compensation expense from the acceleration of awards related to our former CEO.

Loss from equity investees	$	(1.5)	$	(1.1)	$	(0.4)	$	(5.8)	$	(2.1)	$	(3.7)

Life Sciences: Loss from equity investees within our Life Sciences segment for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $1.0 million to $1.5 million from $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in loss from equity investee was primarily due to lower equity method losses recognized from our investment in MediBeacon, which were partially offset by higher equity method losses recorded from our investment in Triple Ring. Pansend's basis in MediBeacon has been reduced to zero and Pansend has unrecognized losses from this investment. During the third quarter of 2023, as a result of an additional convertible notes investment in MediBeacon by Pansend, Pansend's basis in MediBeacon increased by $1.0 million and Pansend recognized an additional $1.0 million of equity method losses which were previously unrecognized because Pansend's carrying amount of its investment in MediBeacon had been previously reduced to zero. Pansend's carrying amount of its investment in MediBeacon remains at zero, which has resulted in fewer losses recognized than in the comparable period.

Loss from equity investees within our Life Sciences segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $0.3 million to $5.5 million from $5.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in loss from equity investees was primarily due to lower equity method losses recognized from our investment in MediBeacon, which were partially offset by higher equity method losses recorded from our investment in Triple Ring. Pansend's basis in MediBeacon has been reduced to zero and Pansend has unrecognized losses from this investment. As a result of an additional equity investment made during the first quarter of 2023 by Huadong to MediBeacon, Pansend's basis in MediBeacon increased by $3.8 million, and Pansend issued an additional $1.0 million in convertible notes to MediBeacon during the third quarter of 2023, which also increased Pansend's basis in MediBeacon. Pansend recognized $4.8 million in equity method losses which were previously unrecognized because Pansend's carrying amount of its investment in MediBeacon had been previously reduced to zero. Pansend's carrying amount of its investment in MediBeacon remains at zero, which has resulted in fewer losses recognized than in the comparable period. The decrease in losses recognized from MediBeacon were partially offset by higher equity method losses from our investment in Triple Ring primarily driven by a gain on debt extinguishment recognized in the comparable period.

Refer to Note 6. Investments of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference for additional information on our Life Science segment's investment in MediBeacon.

Other: Income from equity investees within our Other segment for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $1.4 million to zero from income of $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was driven by our previous investment in HMN, which was sold on March 6, 2023.

Loss from equity investees within our Other segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased $4.0 million to a loss of $0.3 million from income of $3.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in loss was driven by our previous investment in HMN, which was sold on March 6, 2023, and had losses for the approximately two months of ownership in the current period, compared to net income for the nine months in the comparable period.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Information

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement recognized under U.S. GAAP. In addition, other companies may define Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, which could limit its usefulness.

Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides investors with meaningful information for gaining an understanding of our results as it is frequently used by the financial community to provide insight into an organization’s operating trends and facilitates comparisons between peer companies, since interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and the other items listed in the definition of Adjusted EBITDA below can differ greatly between organizations as a result of differing capital structures and tax strategies. Adjusted EBITDA can also be a useful measure of a company’s ability to service debt. While management believes that non-U.S. GAAP measurements are useful supplemental information, such adjusted results are not intended to replace our U.S. GAAP financial results. Using Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure has inherent limitations as an analytical tool as compared to net income (loss) or other U.S. GAAP financial measures, as this non-GAAP measure excludes certain items, including items that are recurring in nature, which may be meaningful to investors. As a result of the exclusions, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation and does not purport to be an alternative to net income (loss) or other U.S. GAAP financial measures as a measure of our operating performance.

43

The calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, as defined by us, consists of Net income (loss) attributable to INNOVATE Corp., excluding discontinued operations, if applicable; depreciation and amortization; other operating (income) loss, which is inclusive of (gain) loss on sale or disposal of assets, lease termination costs, asset impairment expense and FCC reimbursements; interest expense; other (income) expense, net; income tax expense (benefit); non-controlling interest; share-based compensation expense; legacy accounts receivable write-off; restructuring and exit costs; non-recurring items; and acquisition and disposition costs.

Infrastructure: Net income from our Infrastructure segment for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased $0.4 million to $10.8 million from $10.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Adjusted EBITDA from our Infrastructure segment for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased $3.2 million to $30.8 million from $27.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by timing of higher margin projects at DBMG's commercial structural steel fabrication and erection business, increased contributions from the construction modeling and detailing business, a decrease in recurring SG&A expenses, as well as increased contributions from the industrial maintenance and repair business. This was partially offset by lower contributions from Banker Steel due to timing and size of projects.

Life Sciences: Net loss from our Life Sciences segment for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $1.9 million to $3.6 million from $5.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Adjusted EBITDA loss from our Life Sciences segment for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $3.3 million to $4.3 million from $7.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA loss was primarily due to a decrease in SG&A expenses at R2, driven by a decrease in compensation-related expenses, research and development and marketing costs as a result of cost reduction initiatives, as well as lower equity method losses recognized from Pansend's investment in MediBeacon as a result of suspended losses due to the investment's carrying amount being reduced to zero. This was partially offset by net higher equity method losses recorded from our investment in Triple Ring.

Spectrum: Net loss from our Spectrum segment for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased $5.1 million to $6.5 million from $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Adjusted EBITDA from our Spectrum segment for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $0.6 million to a loss of $0.3 million from income of $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to an increase in SG&A expenses at station group, driven by an increase in severance and salaries and benefit related expenses.

Non-operating Corporate: Net loss from our Non-operating Corporate segment for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $1.9 million to $7.7 million from $9.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Adjusted EBITDA loss from our Non-operating Corporate segment for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $0.9 million to $4.1 million from $5.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA loss was primarily driven by a decrease in legal expenses, and decreases in bonus expense, salaries and benefits from reduced headcount, as well as a net decrease in severance expense, which related to the Company's former Chief Operating Officer in the current period and to the Company's former Chief Legal Officer in the prior period.

Other and Eliminations: Net income from our Other and Eliminations segment for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $0.7 million to zero from $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Adjusted EBITDA from our Other segment for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $1.1 million to zero from $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by the elimination of equity method income from our investment in HMN, which was sold on March 6, 2023. Refer to Note 6. Investments of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference for additional information related to our Other segment's disposition of our equity investment in HMN.

Infrastructure: Net income from our Infrastructure segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $3.5 million to $19.8 million from $23.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Adjusted EBITDA from our Infrastructure segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased $1.6 million to $70.6 million from $69.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by DBMG's commercial structural steel fabrication and erection business and increased contribution from the construction modeling and detailing business. While the commercial structural steel fabrication and erection business experienced customer and general contractor driven delays in the current period that impacted its revenue, Adjusted EBITDA saw margin improvement as projects completed in the comparable period, which had lower margins due to market pressure on point-of-sale project margins during the COVID-19 pandemic, were replaced with more recent projects with higher point-of-sale margins in the current period. This was partially offset by lower contributions from Banker Steel and the industrial maintenance and repair businesses due to the timing of projects, as well as an increase in recurring SG&A, primarily compensation-related expenses.

Life Sciences: Net loss from our Life Sciences segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $5.6 million to $9.3 million from $14.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Adjusted EBITDA loss from our Life Sciences segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $4.9 million to $16.0 million from $20.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA loss was primarily due a decrease in SG&A expenses at R2, driven by a decrease in compensation-related expenses, research and development and marketing costs as a result of cost reduction initiatives, as well as lower equity method losses recognized from our investment in MediBeacon in the current period, as a result of suspended losses due to the investment's carrying amount being reduced to zero. The decrease was partially offset by higher equity method losses from our investment in Triple Ring driven by a gain on debt extinguishment recognized in the comparable period.

Spectrum: Net loss from our Spectrum segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased $6.3 million to $16.8 million from $10.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Adjusted EBITDA from our Spectrum segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $1.1 million to $0.9 million from $2.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to an increase in SG&A expenses at station group, driven by an increase in salaries and benefits and severance expense, which were partially offset by the elimination of Network's EBITDA losses in the comparable period as a result of the termination of Network and an increase in station revenues, which launched new markets and networks with its customers in the current period.

Non-operating Corporate: Net loss from our Non-operating Corporate segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $2.6 million to $27.8 million from $30.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Adjusted EBITDA loss from our Non-operating Corporate segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $2.0 million to $11.0 million from $13.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA loss was primarily driven by a decrease in legal and settlement expenses, decreases in bonus expense, salaries and benefits from reduced headcount, as well as a net decrease in severance expense, which related to the Company's former Chief Operating Officer in the current period and to the Company's former Chief Legal Officer in the prior period.

Other and Eliminations: Net income from our Other and Eliminations segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased $5.9 million to $8.2 million from $2.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Adjusted EBITDA from our Other segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $3.9 million to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $1.0 million from Adjusted EBITDA income of $2.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was driven by reduced contribution from HMN, which was sold on March 6, 2023 and severance related expense at TIC Holdco, Inc.

Adjusted EBITDA by segment is summarized as follows:

(in millions):	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,

Backlog

Projects in backlog consist of awarded contracts, letters of intent, notices to proceed, change orders, and purchase orders obtained. Backlog increases as contract commitments are obtained, decreases as revenues are recognized and increases or decreases to reflect modifications in the work to be performed under the contracts. Backlog is converted to sales in future periods as work is performed or projects are completed. Backlog can be significantly affected by the receipt or loss of individual contracts.

Infrastructure Segment

As of September 30, 2023, DBMG's backlog was $1,265.5 million, consisting of $1,154.0 million under contracts or purchase orders and $111.5 million under letters of intent or notices to proceed. Approximately $571.4 million, representing 45.2% of DBMG’s backlog as of September 30, 2023, was attributable to five contracts, letters of intent, notices to proceed or purchase orders. If one or more of these projects terminate or reduce their scope, DBMG’s backlog could decrease substantially. DBMG includes an additional $8.2 million in its backlog that is not included in the remaining unsatisfied performance obligations disclosed in Note 3. Revenue and Contracts in Process of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference for additional information. This additional backlog includes commitments under master service agreements that are estimated amounts of work to be performed based on customer communications, historic performance and knowledge of our customers' intentions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Short- and Long-Term Liquidity Considerations and Risks

Our Non-Operating Corporate segment consists of holding companies, and its liquidity needs are primarily for interest payments on its 2026 Senior Secured Notes, 2026 Convertible Notes, Revolving Line of Credit, CGIC Unsecured Note, and dividend payments on its Preferred Stock and recurring operational expenses. 

On a consolidated basis, as of September 30, 2023, we had $55.7 million of cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted cash, compared to $80.4 million as of December 31, 2022. On a stand-alone basis, as of September 30, 2023, our Non-operating Corporate segment had cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted cash, of $1.5 million compared to $9.1 million at December 31, 2022.

Our subsidiaries' principal liquidity requirements arise from cash used in operating activities, debt service, and capital expenditures, including purchases of steel construction equipment, over-the-air ("OTA") broadcast station equipment, development of back-office systems, operating costs and expenses, and income taxes.

As of September 30, 2023, we had $756.8 million of principal indebtedness on a consolidated basis compared to $725.3 million as of December 31, 2022, a net increase of $31.5 million, which was primarily due to the issuance of the $35.1 million CGIC Unsecured Note, the issuance of additional debt at R2 Technologies in principal amount of $6.6 million, partially offset by a $10.2 million net decrease in debt at our Infrastructure segment.

As of September 30, 2023, on a stand-alone basis, our Non-operating Corporate segment indebtedness increased to $436.9 million from $401.8 million as of December 31, 2022, an increase of $35.1 million, attributable to the issuance of the $35.1 million CGIC Unsecured Note. As of September 30, 2023, our Non-Operating Corporate segment's stand-alone indebtedness consists of the $330.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2026 Senior Secured Notes, $51.8 million aggregate principal amount of 2026 Convertible Notes, $35.1 million principal amount CGIC Unsecured Note and $20.0 million aggregate principal amount drawn on the Revolving Line of Credit. Our Non-operating Corporate segment is required to make semi-annual interest payments on the 2026 Senior Secured Notes and 2026 Convertible Notes on February 1st and August 1st of each year, quarterly interest payments on the Revolving Line of Credit, and monthly interest payments on the CGIC Unsecured Note. As described below, the interest rate on the CGIC Unsecured Note will increase from 9% per annum to 16% per annum on May 9, 2024 and from 16% per annum to 32% per annum on May 9, 2025.

Our Non-Operating Corporate segment received $7.0 million and $18.3 million in tax sharing payments from its Infrastructure segment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively.

We have financed our growth and operations to date, and expect to finance our future growth and operations, through public offerings and private placements of debt and equity securities, credit facilities, vendor financing, finance lease financing and other financing arrangements, as well as cash generated from the operations of our subsidiaries. In the future, we may also choose to sell assets or certain investments to generate cash.

On March 15, 2023, DBMGi received a redemption notice from CGIC, the holder of the Series A Fixed-to-Floating Rate Perpetual Preferred Stock of DBMGi (the “DBMGi Preferred Stock”) requesting that DBMGi redeem 41,820.25 shares of DBMGi Preferred Stock, representing all of the issued and outstanding shares of DBMGi Preferred Stock, within 60 days of the notice, or by May 15, 2023. On May 9, 2023, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement and Subordinated Unsecured Promissory Note with CGIC whereby the Company agreed to purchase the 41,820.25 shares of DBMGi Preferred Stock for full satisfaction of the redemption notice. In full consideration of the DBMGi Preferred Stock as well as an accrued dividend of $0.4 million, the Company paid CGIC $7.1 million on May 9, 2023, and issued a subordinated unsecured promissory note to CGIC in the principal amount of $35.1 million (the "CGIC Unsecured Note"). The CGIC Unsecured Note is due February 28, 2026, and bears interest at 9% per annum through May 8, 2024, 16% per annum from May 9, 2024 to May 8, 2025, and 32% per annum thereafter. The CGIC Unsecured Note also requires a mandatory prepayment from the proceeds from certain asset sales and the greater of $3 million or 12.5% of the proceeds from certain equity sales. Other covenants in the CGIC Unsecured Note are generally consistent with the Company's Indenture governing the 8.50% Senior Secured Notes due 2026, dated as of February 1, 2021, by and among the Company, the guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association. The foregoing is a summary only and does not purport to be a complete description of all of the terms, provisions, covenants, and agreements contained in the Stock Purchase Agreement and Subordinated Unsecured Promissory Note, and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Stock Purchase Agreement and Subordinated Unsecured Promissory Note, which were filed with our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on May 10, 2023, as Exhibits 10.5 and 10.6, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference. On May 8, 2023, INNOVATE drew an additional $8.0 million under the Revolving Credit Agreement. Additionally, on July 31, 2023, INNOVATE drew an additional $7.0 million under the Revolving Credit Agreement, increasing the outstanding balance to $20.0 million as of September 30, 2023.

On November 7, 2023, Lancer Capital, LLC (“Lancer”), a related party and an entity controlled by Avram A. Glazer, the Chairman of INNOVATE's Board of Directors and a beneficial owner of the Company, provided a letter of support for up to $35.0 million to the Company expressing Lancer’s continued support for the Company and Lancer’s intent to facilitate the provision of additional funding as reasonably requested by the Board through the earlier of November 30, 2024 or the date on which the Company closes any sale or series of sales of debt or equity security raised of the Company, both as defined in the letter, resulting in aggregate net proceeds to the Company of greater than or equal to $35.0 million. Management believes that with the available cash on hand, available borrowings under the Revolving Line of Credit, distributions from the Company’s subsidiaries and the letter of support from Lancer, the Company will be able to meet its obligations for at least the next twelve months from the issuance of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

The ability of INNOVATE’s subsidiaries to make distributions to INNOVATE is subject to numerous factors, including restrictions contained in each subsidiary’s financing agreements, availability of sufficient funds at each subsidiary and the approval of such payment by each subsidiary’s board of directors, which must consider various factors, including general economic and business conditions, tax considerations, strategic plans, financial results and condition, expansion plans, any contractual, legal or regulatory restrictions on the payment of dividends, and such other factors each subsidiary’s board of directors considers relevant. Although the Company believes, that it will be able, to the extent needed, to raise additional debt or equity capital, refinance indebtedness or preferred stock, enter into other financing arrangements or engage in asset sales and sales of certain investments sufficient to fund any cash needs that we are not able to satisfy with the funds on hand or expected to be provided by our subsidiaries, there can be no assurance that it will be able to do so on terms satisfactory to the Company, if at all. Such financing options, if pursued, may also ultimately have the effect of negatively impacting our liquidity profile and prospects over the long-term and dilute the holders of common stock. Our ability to sell assets and certain of our investments to meet our existing financing needs may also be limited by our existing financing instruments. In addition, the sale of assets or the Company’s investments may also make the Company less attractive to potential investors or future financing partners.

Spectrum

As of September 30, 2023, our Spectrum segment has aggregate principal outstanding debt of $69.7 million.

On December 30, 2022, Broadcasting entered into a Seventh Omnibus Amendment to Secured Notes which, among other things, extended the maturity date of $52.2 million of its Senior Secured Notes, due December 30, 2022 to May 31, 2024. The effective interest rates on the notes range from 12.8% to 19.6%. Interest is capitalized and payable upon maturity of the principal. The $52.2 million of Senior Secured Notes consisted of $19.3 million of 8.5% Senior Secured Notes and $32.9 million of 10.5% Senior Secured Notes. The other terms of the $19.3 million 8.5% Senior Notes remained the same. At the time of the extension, Broadcasting had accrued interest and other fees of $6.9 million. The interest rate on the $32.9 million 10.5% Senior Notes was increased to 11.45% and cumulative accrued interest and exit fees of $17.5 million were capitalized into the principal balance with both note extensions accounted for as debt modification events. All other terms were essentially the same. Total outstanding principal after the refinancing was $69.7 million, and $6.9 million of accrued interest and fees remain accrued, with total exit fees of $7.6 million which were recorded as original issue discount with a corresponding liability reflected in Other Liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Concurrently therewith and as part of the consideration for extending the 10.5% Senior Notes in December 2022, Broadcasting amended warrants to purchase 145,825 shares of common stock of HC2 Broadcasting Holdings, Inc. common stock held by the lenders of the 10.5% Senior Notes by extending the time to exercise such to the second half of 2026 and reducing the exercise price per share (i) from $140.00 to $0.01 in the case of the certain of the warrants and (ii) from $130.00 to $0.01 in the case of the remaining warrants. The warrants have a five-year term and are exercisable at any time. The change in the fair value of the warrants was recorded as original issue discount with a corresponding impact reflected in Non-controlling interest of $3.1 million.

On August 8, 2023, Broadcasting entered into an Eighth Amendment to Secured Notes with its lenders which extended the maturity date of its Senior Secured Notes aggregate principal amount of $69.7 million, from May 31, 2024 to August 15, 2024.

In exchange, INNOVATE has agreed to utilize proceeds from the sale of any of its existing operations, as allowable under the Company's current agreements and after all other required payments, for repayment of a portion of Broadcasting's Senior Secured Notes, plus an additional exit fee upon such a repayment of $1.0 million if repayment occurs by November 9, 2024, and $2.0 million if repayment occurs after that date. Upon payment of the exit fee, the lenders also agree to return their equity interests in HC2 Broadcasting Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiary equity interests.

Refer to Note 11. Debt Obligations to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional details regarding the indebtedness of our Infrastructure, Life Sciences and Spectrum segments.

Restrictive Covenants

The indenture governing the 2026 Senior Secured Notes dated February 1, 2021, by and among INNOVATE, the guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association, as trustee (the "Secured Indenture"), contains certain affirmative and negative covenants limiting, among other things, the ability of the Company, and, in certain cases, the Company’s subsidiaries, to incur additional indebtedness; create liens; engage in sale-leaseback transactions; pay dividends or make distributions in respect of capital stock; make certain restricted payments; sell assets; engage in transactions with affiliates; or consolidate or merge with, or sell substantially all of its assets to, another person. These covenants are subject to a number of important exceptions and qualifications.

50

The Company is also required to comply with certain financial maintenance covenants, which are similarly subject to a number of important exceptions and qualifications. These covenants include maintenance of (1) liquidity and (2) collateral coverage.

The maintenance of liquidity covenant provides that the Company will not permit the aggregate amount of (i) all unrestricted cash and Cash Equivalents of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, (ii) amounts available for drawing under revolving credit facilities and undrawn letters of credit of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors and (iii) dividends, distributions or payments that are immediately available to be paid to the Company by any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to be less than the Company’s obligation to pay interest for the next six months on the 2026 Senior Secured Notes and all other Debt, including Convertible Preferred Stock mandatory cash dividends or any other mandatory cash pay Preferred Stock but excluding any obligation to pay interest on Convertible Preferred Stock or any other mandatory cash payments on Preferred Stock which, in each case, may be paid by accretion or in-kind in accordance with its terms of the Company and its Subsidiary Guarantors. As of September 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with this covenant.

The maintenance of collateral coverage provides that the certain subsidiaries' Collateral Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Secured Indenture as the ratio of (i) the Loan Collateral to (ii) Consolidated Secured Debt (each as defined therein)) calculated on a pro forma basis as of the last day of each fiscal quarter may not be less than 1.50 to 1.00. As of September 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with this covenant.

The instruments governing the Company’s Preferred Stock also limit the Company’s and its subsidiaries ability to take certain actions, including, among other things, to incur additional indebtedness; issue additional Preferred Stock; engage in transactions with affiliates; and make certain restricted payments. These limitations are subject to a number of important exceptions and qualifications.

The Company has conducted its operations in a manner that has resulted in compliance with the Secured Indenture; however, compliance with certain financial covenants for future periods may depend on the Company or one or more of the Company’s subsidiaries undertaking one or more non-operational transactions, such as the management of operating cash outflows, a monetization of assets, a debt incurrence or refinancing, the raising of equity capital, or similar transactions. If the Company is unable to remain in compliance and does not make alternate arrangements, an event of default would occur under the Company’s Secured Indenture which, among other remedies, could result in the outstanding obligations under the indenture becoming immediately due and payable and permitting the exercise of remedies with respect to the collateral. There is no assurance the Company will be able to complete any non-operational transaction it may undertake to maintain compliance with covenants under the Secured Indenture or, even if the Company completes any such transaction, that it will be able to maintain compliance for any subsequent period.

The UMB Term Loan and UMB Revolving Line associated with our Infrastructure segment contains customary restrictive and financial covenants related to debt levels and performance, including a Fixed Coverage Ratio covenant, as defined in the agreement.

As of September 30, 2023, we were in compliance with the covenants of our debt agreements.

Summary of Consolidated Cash Flows

The below table summarizes the cash provided by or used in our activities and the amount of the respective changes between the years (in millions):

	September 30				Increase / (Decrease)
	2023		2022
Cash used in operating activities	(34.7)		(72.2)		37.5
Cash provided by (used in) investing activities	41.2		(18.3)		59.5
Cash (used in) provided by financing activities	(30.6)		73.2		(103.8)
Effects of exchange rate changes on cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	(1.0)		(2.5)		1.5
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash	$	(25.1)	$	(19.8)	$	(5.3)

Operating Activities

Cash used in operating activities was $34.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to $72.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, a decrease in cash used of $37.5 million. Cash flows from operations are primarily influenced by changes in the timing of demand for services and operating margins, but can also be affected by working capital needs associated with our operations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the decrease in cash used in operating activities was primarily due to a net decrease in working capital cash outflows, primarily from changes in contract-related assets and liabilities at our Infrastructure segment, which was partially offset by an increase in net loss after non-cash adjustments.

51

Investing Activities

Cash provided by investing activities was $41.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to cash used in investing activities of $18.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, an improvement of $59.5 million. The improvement in cash provided by investing activities was primarily driven by the $54.2 million of gross cash proceeds received from the sale of New Saxon's 19% investment in HMN on March 6, 2023. Capital expenditures, net of disposals for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were $12.4 million, as compared to $14.4 million for nine months ended September 30, 2022, a net decrease in cash used in PP&E activity of $2.0 million, primarily due to the completion of the Spectrum station build-out subsequent to the comparable period in 2022. Additionally, the nine months ended September 30, 2022 had included a $4.5 million loan to MediBeacon in the first quarter of 2022, while the current period includes $1.0 million in loans to MediBeacon in the third quarter of 2023.

Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities was $30.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to cash provided by financing activities of $73.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, an increase in cash used of $103.8 million. The increase in cash used in financing activities was primarily driven by a decrease in net proceeds from our credit facilities of $81.7 million, primarily from a decrease in net proceeds from Infrastructure's UMB Revolving Line of $66.7 million and a decrease in net proceeds from our Non-Operating Corporate Revolving Line of Credit of $15.0 million. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we made $15.9 million in distributions to non-controlling interests and redeemable non-controlling interests related to the sale of New Saxon's 19% investment in HMN on March 6, 2023 and also made a $7.0 million payment in connection with the repurchase the DBMGi Series A Preferred Stock. Compared to the prior period, proceeds from other debt obligations decreased by $4.6 million, which was partially offset by a decrease in principal payments on other debt obligations.

Infrastructure

Cash Flows

Cash flows from operating activities are the principal source of cash used to fund DBMG’s operating expenses, interest payments on debt, and capital expenditures. DBMG's short-term cash needs are primarily for working capital to support operations including receivables, inventories, and other costs incurred in performing its contracts. DBMG attempts to structure the payment arrangements under its contracts to match costs incurred under the project. To the extent it is able to bill in advance of costs incurred, DBMG generates working capital through billings in excess of costs and recognized earnings on uncompleted contracts. DBMG relies on its credit facilities to meet its working capital needs. DBMG believes that its available funds, cash generated by operating activities and funds available under its bank credit facilities will be adequate to meet all funding requirements for its operating expenses, working capital needs, interest payments on debt and capital expenditures for the foreseeable future. However, DBMG may expand its operations through future acquisitions and may require additional equity or debt financing.

DBMG is required to make monthly or quarterly interest payments on all of its debt. Based upon the September 30, 2023 debt balance, DBMG anticipates that its interest payments will be approximately $3.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2023.

Off- Balance Sheet Arrangements

We may enter into certain off-balance sheet arrangements in the ordinary course of business. Our off-balance sheet transactions may include, but are not limited to: leases that have not yet commenced, short-term leases, liabilities associated with non-cancelable operating leases with durations of less than twelve months, letter of credit obligations, surety, performance or payment bonds entered into in the normal course of business, and liabilities associated with multi-employer pension plans.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended (the "Exchange Act") as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective. Disclosure controls and procedures mean our controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2023, 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

The Company is subject to claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. Such matters are inherently uncertain, and there can be no guarantee that the outcome of any such matter will be decided favorably to the Company or that the resolution of any such matter will not have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company does not believe that any of such pending claims and legal proceedings will have a material adverse effect on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company records a liability in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for these matters when a loss is known or considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The Company reviews these estimates each accounting period as additional information is known and adjusts the loss provision when appropriate. If a matter is both probable to result in a liability and the amounts of loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company estimates and discloses the possible loss or range of loss to the extent necessary for the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements not to be misleading. If the loss is not probable or cannot be reasonably estimated, a liability is not recorded in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Refer to Note 13. Commitments and Contingencies of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference for additional information.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Other than as set forth below, there have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in Part 1, Item 1A of our Fiscal Year 2022 Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on March 14, 2023. See "Risk Factors" in Item 1A of Part I of such Fiscal Year 2022 Form 10-K for a complete description of the material risks we face.

Bank failures or other similar events could adversely affect our and our customers' and vendors' liquidity and financial performance.

We maintain domestic cash deposits in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insured banks, in excess of FDIC insurance limits. Bank failures or other similar events could disrupt our access to bank deposits or otherwise adversely impact our liquidity and financial performance. There can be no assurance that our deposits in excess of the FDIC or other comparable insurance limits will be backstopped by the U.S. or applicable foreign government in the event of a failure or liquidity crisis.

Our customers and vendors may suffer similar adverse effects from a bank failure. Any resulting adverse effects to our customers could reduce the demand for our services or affect our allowance for doubtful accounts and collectability of accounts receivable. Adverse effects to our vendors could affect our ability to receive the resources and supplies we need for our business. These factors could materially affect our future financial results.

In addition, instability, liquidity constraints or other distress in the financial markets, including the effects of bank failures or similar adverse developments could impair the ability of one or more of the banks participating in our current credit facilities from honoring their commitments. This could have an adverse effect on our business if we were not able to replace those commitments or to locate other sources of liquidity on acceptable terms.

Loss of our key management or other personnel, including the recent unexpected passing of our Chief Executive Officer, President and Director, could adversely impact our business.

We believe that the future success of INNOVATE and its operating subsidiaries is largely dependent and will depend to a significant extent upon the performance, skills, experience and efforts of our senior management and certain other key personnel. If, for any reason, one or more senior executives or key personnel were not to remain active in our Company, our results of operations could be adversely affected.

On July 23, 2023, we announced the unexpected passing of Wayne Barr, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Director. Mr. Barr had served as a director of INNOVATE since January 2014 and as CEO since November 2020. Following Mr. Barr’s death, on July 25, 2023, Paul K. Voigt was named Interim Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Mr. Voigt has served as Senior Managing Director of Investments at Lancer Capital since 2019. From 2014 to 2018, Mr. Voigt served as Senior Managing Director of Investments of the Company and was involved with sourcing deals and capital raising for the Company.

The executive management teams that lead our subsidiaries are also highly experienced and possess extensive skills in their relevant industries. The ability to retain key personnel is important to our success and future growth. Competition for these professionals can be intense, and we may not be able to retain and motivate our existing officers and senior employees, and continue to compensate such individuals competitively. The unexpected loss of the services of one or more of these individuals, whether due to competition, distraction caused by personal matters or otherwise, could have a detrimental effect on the financial condition or results of operations of our businesses, and could hinder the ability of such businesses to effectively compete in the various industries in which we operate.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

Equity Award Share Withholding

Shares of common stock withheld as payment of withholding taxes in connection with the vesting or exercise of equity awards are treated as common stock repurchases. Those withheld shares of common stock are not considered common stock repurchases under an authorized common stock repurchase plan. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we withheld 59,732 shares at an average price per share of $2.94 as payment of withholding taxes in connection with the vesting of employee equity awards. There were no shares withheld for taxes during the three months ended September 30, 2023.

For value received, R2 Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), promises to pay to Lancer Capital LLC (the “Holder”), or its permitted assigns, in lawful money of the United States of America the principal sum of $562,500.00. Interest shall accrue from the date of this Secured Promissory Note (this “Note”) on the unpaid principal amount at a rate equal to 20.00% simple interest per annum (or 22.00% simple interest per annum if provided by Section 3). Any capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meaning as set forth in that certain Senior Secured Promissory Note Purchase Agreement, dated as of July 13, 2022 by and among the Company and the Holder (as may be amended from time to time, the “Purchase Agreement”).

This Note is subject to the following terms and conditions:

1.    Repayment. The entire then-outstanding and unpaid principal amount of this Note, together with any accrued but unpaid interest under this Note (the “Outstanding Amount”), shall be due and payable on the earlier to occur of (i) August 15, 2023 or (ii) within five (5) business days after the date on which the Company receives an aggregate of $20,000,000 from the consummation of one or more bona fide debt or equity financings, other capital investments, or capital contributions, whether from new or existing equity holders or debt holders (such applicable date, the “Maturity Date”). The Notes shall rank pari passu in right of payment with respect to each other Note, and all payments to each of the Holders under the Notes shall be made pro rata among the Holders based upon the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Notes outstanding immediately prior to any such payment. All payments shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America at such place as the Holder hereof may from time to time designate in writing to the Company. Interest shall accrue on this Note but shall not be due and payable until the Holder’s written request for repayment after the Maturity Date.

2.    Security; Guarantee. The parties agree that the payment obligations of the Company arising under this Note are secured pursuant to the terms of (i) that certain Security Agreement dated as of July 13, 2022 by and between the Company and Holder (as amended from time to time, the “Security Agreement”) and (ii) that certain Intellectual Property Security Agreement, dated as of July 13, 2022, by the Company in favor of the Holder (as amended from time to time, the “IP Security Agreement”). Reference hereby is made to the Security Agreement and the IP Security Agreement for a description of the nature and extent of the collateral serving as security for this Note and the rights of the Holder with respect to such security.

3.    Events of Default. Interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal amount of this Note at a rate equal to 22.00% simple interest per annum, for the period beginning with the date of occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined below) and continuing for so long as such Event of Default is continuing. The Company shall immediately notify the Holder in writing upon becoming aware of the occurrence of any Event of Default; provided that the provision of such notice shall not effect or impair the Holder's rights hereunder. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute an “Event of Default” under this Note:

(b)    the occurrence of an event of default pursuant to any Senior Indebtedness (as defined below), subject to applicable notice and cure periods;

(c)    the Company shall (i) apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator or custodian of itself or of all or a substantial part of its property, (ii) make a general assignment for the benefit of its or any of its creditors or (iv) commence a voluntary case or other proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to itself or its debts under any

bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect or consent to any such relief or to the appointment of or taking possession of its property by any official in an involuntary case or other proceeding commenced against it;

(d)    proceedings for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator or custodian of the Company or of all or a substantial part of the property thereof, or an involuntary case or other proceedings seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to the Company or the debts thereof under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect shall be commenced and an order for relief entered or such proceeding shall not be challenged, dismissed or discharged within ninety (90) days of commencement;

(e)    the dissolution or winding up of the Company; or

(f)    the appointment of a receiver or trustee to take possession of any property or assets of the Company.

        (a)    Insolvency Proceedings. If there shall occur any receivership, insolvency, assignment for the benefit of creditors, bankruptcy, reorganization, or arrangements with creditors (whether or not pursuant to bankruptcy or other insolvency laws), sale of all or substantially all of the assets, dissolution, liquidation, or any other marshaling of the assets and liabilities of the Company, no amount shall be paid by the Company in respect of the principal of, interest on or other amounts due with respect to this Note at the time outstanding, unless and until the principal of and interest on the Senior Indebtedness then outstanding shall be paid in full.

        (b)    Subrogation. Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, the holder of this Note shall be subrogated to the rights of the holder(s) of such Senior Indebtedness (to the extent of the payments or distributions made to the holder(s) of such Senior Indebtedness pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4) to receive payments and distributions of assets of the Company applicable to the Senior Indebtedness. No such payments or distributions applicable to the Senior Indebtedness shall, as between the Company and its creditors, other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness and the Holder, be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or on account of this Note; and for purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of Senior Indebtedness to which the Holder would be entitled except for the provisions of this Section 4 shall, as between the Company and its creditors, other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness and the Holder, be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or on account of the Senior Indebtedness. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company represents and warrants to the Holder that (a) the terms of the Senior Indebtedness allow for the transactions contemplated by this Note and the repayment in full by the Company of its obligations pursuant to this Note on the Maturity Date without any default thereunder, and (b) no consent is required from any third party, including any holder of the Senior Indebtedness, to enter into the transaction contemplated by this Note or to pay in full the obligations of the Company pursuant to this Note, which consent has not been obtained prior to the date hereof.

Nothing contained in this Section 4 shall impair, as between the Company and the Holder, the obligation of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, to pay to the Holder the principal hereof and interest hereon as and when the same become due and payable, or shall prevent the Holder of this Note, upon default hereunder, from exercising all rights, powers and remedies otherwise provided herein or by applicable law.

        (d)    Reliance of the Holders of Senior Indebtedness. The Holder, by its acceptance hereof, shall be deemed to acknowledge and agree that the foregoing subordination provisions are, and are intended to be, an inducement to and a consideration of each holder of Senior Indebtedness, whether

such Senior Indebtedness was created or acquired before or after the creation of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note, and each such holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed conclusively to have relied on such subordination provisions in acquiring and holding, or in continuing to hold, such Senior Indebtedness.

For purposes of this Note, “Senior Indebtedness” shall mean, unless expressly subordinated to or made on a parity with the amounts due under this Note, the principal of (and premium, if any), unpaid interest on and amounts reimbursed, fees, expenses, costs of enforcement and other amounts due in connection with, (i) indebtedness of the Company, or with respect to which the Company is a guarantor, to banks, commercial finance lenders, insurance companies, leasing or equipment financing institutions or other lending institutions regularly engaged in the business of lending money (excluding venture capital, investment banking or similar institutions which from time to time engage in lending activities but which are primarily engaged in investments in equity securities), which is for money borrowed, or purchase or leasing of equipment in the case of lease or other equipment financing, by the Company, whether or not secured, and (ii) any debentures, notes or other evidence of indebtedness issued in exchange for such Senior Indebtedness, or any indebtedness arising from the satisfaction of such Senior Indebtedness by a guarantor, in each case, to the extent in existence and outstanding as of the date of the Initial Closing (as defined in the Purchase Agreement).

5.    Expenses. The Company agrees to pay all costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees at any time paid or incurred by Holder to collect the indebtedness evidenced by this Note.

6.    Waiver.

The Company waives presentment, protest or notice of dishonor and demand for payment and notice of default for non-payment.

7.    Transfer; Successors and Assigns. The terms and conditions of this Note shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the respective successors and permitted assigns of the parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder may not assign, pledge, or otherwise transfer this Note without the prior written consent of the Company, except for transfers to an entity controlled by or under common control with the Holder.

Thereupon, a new note for the same principal amount and interest will be issued to, and registered in the name of, the transferee. Interest and principal are payable only to the registered holder of this Note.

    Lenders agree that references to consideration or payment received by Innovate as used herein shall mean receipt by Innovate only, and not receipt by any subsidiary of Innovate.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Organization and Business

1. Organization and Business

INNOVATE Corp. ("INNOVATE" and, together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the "Company", "we" and "our") is a diversified holding company that has a portfolio of subsidiaries in a variety of operating segments. We seek to grow these businesses so that they can generate long-term sustainable free cash flow and attractive returns in order to maximize value for all stakeholders. While the Company generally intends to acquire controlling equity interests in its operating subsidiaries, the Company may invest to a limited extent in a variety of non-controlling equity interest positions or debt instruments. The Company’s shares of common stock trade on the NYSE under the symbol "VATE".

The Company currently has three reportable segments, plus our Other segment, based on management’s organization of the enterprise: Infrastructure, Life Sciences, Spectrum, and Other which includes businesses that do not meet the separately reportable segment thresholds.

1.Our Infrastructure segment is comprised of DBM Global Inc. ("DBMG") and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. DBMG is a fully integrated industrial construction, structural steel and facility maintenance provider that provides fabrication and erection of structural steel and heavy steel plate services and also fabricates trusses and girders and specializes in the fabrication and erection of large-diameter water pipe and water storage tanks, as well as 3-D Building Information Modeling (“BIM”) and detailing. DBMG provides these services on commercial, industrial, and infrastructure construction projects such as high- and low-rise buildings and office complexes, hotels and casinos, convention centers, sports arenas and stadiums, shopping malls, hospitals, dams, bridges, mines, metal processing, refineries, pulp and paper mills and power plants. Through GrayWolf Industrial Inc. ("GrayWolf"), DBMG provides integrated solutions for digital engineering, modeling and detailing, construction, heavy equipment installation and facility services including maintenance, repair, and installation to a diverse range of end markets. Through Aitken Manufacturing, Inc., DBMG manufactures pollution control scrubbers, tunnel liners, pressure vessels, strainers, filters, separators and a variety of customized products. Through Banker Steel Holdco, LLC ("Banker Steel"), DBMG provides full-service fabricated structural steel and erection services primarily for the East Coast and Southeast commercial and industrial construction market, in addition to full design-assist services. The Company maintains an approximately 91% controlling interest in DBMG.

2.Our Life Sciences segment is comprised of Pansend Life Sciences, LLC ("Pansend"), its subsidiaries and equity method investments. Pansend maintains controlling interests of approximately 80% in Genovel Orthopedics, Inc. ("Genovel"), which seeks to develop products to treat early osteoarthritis of the knee and approximately 57% in R2 Technologies, Inc. ("R2"), which develops aesthetic and medical technologies for the skin. Pansend also invests in other early stage or developmental stage healthcare companies including an approximately 46% interest in MediBeacon Inc. ("MediBeacon"), a medical technology company specializing in the advances of fluorescent tracer agents and transdermal measurement, potentially enabling real-time, direct monitoring of kidney function, and an approximately 26% interest in Triple Ring Technologies, Inc. ("Triple Ring"), a science and technology co-development company.

3.Our Spectrum segment is comprised of HC2 Broadcasting Holdings Inc. ("Broadcasting") and its subsidiaries. Broadcasting strategically acquired and operates over-the-air broadcasting stations across the United States. The Company maintains a 98% controlling interest in Broadcasting and maintains a controlling interest of approximately 77%, inclusive of approximately 10% proxy and voting rights from minority holders of DTV America Corporation ("DTV"). On a fully diluted basis, the Company would have an approximately 86% controlling interest in Broadcasting.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and all other subsidiaries over which the Company exerts control. All intercompany profits, transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The remaining interests not owned by the Company are presented as a non-controlling interest component of total equity.

Basis of Presentation and Liquidity

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of such information. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Certain information and note disclosures, including a description of significant accounting policies normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"), have been condensed or omitted in these interim unaudited financial statements pursuant to such rules and regulations. Certain prior amounts have been reclassified or combined to conform to the current year presentation.

These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 14, 2023. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results for any subsequent periods or the entire fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.

Subsequent to quarter end, on November 7, 2023, Lancer Capital, LLC (“Lancer”), a related party and an entity controlled by Avram A. Glazer, the Chairman of INNOVATE's Board of Directors and a beneficial owner of the Company, provided a letter of support for up to $35.0 million to the Company expressing Lancer’s continued support for the Company and Lancer’s intent to facilitate the provision of additional funding as reasonably requested by the Board through November 30, 2024 or the date on which the Company closes any sale or series of sales of debt or equity security raised of the Company, as defined in the letter, resulting in aggregate net proceeds to the Company of greater than or equal to $35.0 million. Management believes that with the available cash on hand, available borrowings under the senior credit facility, distributions from the Company’s subsidiaries and the letter of support from Lancer, the Company will be able to meet its obligations for at least the next twelve months from the issuance of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

The ability of INNOVATE’s subsidiaries to make distributions to INNOVATE is subject to numerous factors, including restrictions contained in each subsidiary’s financing agreements, availability of sufficient funds at each subsidiary and the approval of such payment by each subsidiary’s board of directors, which must consider various factors, including general economic and business conditions, tax considerations, strategic plans, financial results and condition, expansion plans, any contractual, legal or regulatory restrictions on the payment of dividends, and such other factors each subsidiary’s board of directors considers relevant. Although the Company believes, to the extent needed, that it will be able to raise additional debt or equity capital, refinance indebtedness or preferred stock, enter into other financing arrangements or engage in asset sales and sales of certain investments sufficient to fund any cash needs that the Company is not able to satisfy with the funds on hand or expected to be provided by our subsidiaries, there can be no assurance that it will be able to do so on terms satisfactory to the Company, if at all. Such financing options, if pursued, may also ultimately have the effect of negatively impacting our liquidity profile and prospects over the long-term and dilute holders of common stock. Our ability to sell assets and certain of our investments to meet our existing financing needs may also be limited by our existing financing instruments. In addition, the sale of assets or the Company’s investments may also make the Company less attractive to potential investors or future financing partners.

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions used.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in the Current Year

Credit Loss Standard

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This new standard and its related amendments change the impairment model for most financial assets that are measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments, including trade receivables and contract assets, from an incurred loss model to an expected loss model and adds certain new required disclosures. Under the new expected loss model, which is based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts, entities recognize estimated credit losses over the entire contractual term of the instrument rather than delaying recognition of credit losses until it is probable the loss has been incurred.

The adoption of ASU 2016-13 and its related amendments on January 1, 2023, did not have any effect on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial statements and did not record any effects through retained earnings. For the amounts calculated for the Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) model subsequent to initial transition, the Company recognizes the expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, and the amount is presented within general and administration costs rather than a separate line. Refer to Note 4. Accounts Receivable, Net.

The Company reviewed its entire portfolio of assets recognized on the balance sheet as of January 1, 2023, and identified Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets as the material impacted assets in-scope of Topic 326. The risk of credit losses from the remaining portfolio of assets was concluded to be immaterial. Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets are presented net of allowances for credit losses. Refer to Note 4. Accounts Receivable, Net. At each balance sheet date, all potentially uncollectible accounts are assessed individually for the purpose of determining the appropriate provision for doubtful accounts. Management has elected to use a risk-based, pool-level segmentation framework to calculate the expected loss rate. Management evaluates its experience with historical losses and then applies this historical loss ratio to financial assets with similar characteristics. The Company’s historical loss ratio or its determination of risk pools may be adjusted for changes in customer, economic, market or other circumstances. The Company may also establish an allowance for credit losses for specific receivables when it is probable that the receivable will not be collected and the loss can be reasonably estimated. Amounts are written off against the allowance when they are considered to be uncollectible, and reversals of previously reserved amounts are recognized if a specifically reserved item is settled for an amount exceeding the previous estimate.

Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Pending Adoption

In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-01, Leases (Topic 842): Common Control Arrangements (“ASU 2023-01”) to improve the guidance for applying Topic 842, Leases, to related party arrangements between entities under common control. ASU 2023-01 improves current GAAP by clarifying the accounting for leasehold improvements associated with common control leases, thereby reducing diversity in practice. The provisions of this ASU that apply to public companies include a requirement for entities to amortize leasehold improvements associated with common control leases over the useful life of the common control group. ASU 2023-01 is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this ASU but does not expect ASU 2023-01 to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On October 9, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06 Disclosure Improvements:Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC's Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative ("ASU 2023-06"), which modifies certain disclosure and presentation requirements of a variety of Topics in the Codification and is intended to both clarify or improve such requirements and align the requirements with the SEC's regulations. The Company is in the process of evaluating the amendments provided in the Update and believes certain of the disclosure improvements may be applicable to the Company's interim or annual disclosures, for example, disclosures related to: earnings-per-share computation for dilutive securities, preferred stock, amounts and terms of unused lines of credit and unfunded commitments and the weighted-average interest rate on short-term borrowings. The effective date for each amendment is the effective date of the removal of the related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K, with early adoption prohibited. The Company will apply the provisions prospectively as such provisions become effective, and does not expect ASU 2023-06 to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Subsequent Events

ASC 855, Subsequent Events requires the Company to evaluate events that occur after the balance sheet date as of which the financial statements are issued, and to determine whether adjustments to or additional disclosures in the financial statements are necessary. Refer to Note 21. Subsequent Events for reference to any subsequent events.

The change in contract assets from December 31, 2022 to September 30, 2023 is a result of the recording of $200.9 million of contract assets driven by new commercial projects, offset by $195.0 million of contract assets transferred to receivables from contract assets recognized at the beginning of the period.

The change in contract liabilities is a result of periodic contract liabilities of $154.8 million driven largely by new commercial projects, offset by revenue recognized that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the period in the amount of $91.2 million.

Transaction Price Allocated to Remaining Unsatisfied Performance Obligations

As of September 30, 2023, the transaction price allocated to remaining unsatisfied performance obligations consisted of the following (in millions):

	Within One Year		Within Five Years		Total
Healthcare	$	202.2	$	271.9	$	474.1
Industrial	265.5		12.5		278.0

Convention	23.8		—		23.8
Other	2.7		—		2.7
Government	5.2		0.8		6.0
Leisure	3.3		—		3.3
Remaining unsatisfied performance obligations	$	910.1	$	347.2	$	1,257.3

DBMG's remaining unsatisfied performance obligations increase with awards of new contracts and decrease as it performs work and recognizes revenue on existing contracts. DBMG includes a project within its remaining unsatisfied performance obligations at such time the project is awarded and agreement on contract terms has been reached. DBMG's remaining unsatisfied performance obligations include amounts related to contracts for which a fixed price contract value is not assigned when a reasonable estimate of total transaction price can be made. DBMG expects to recognize this revenue approximately within the next 3.25 years.

Remaining unsatisfied performance obligations include unrecognized revenues to be realized from uncompleted construction contracts. Although many of DBMG's contracts are subject to cancellation at the election of its customers, in accordance with industry practice, DBMG does not limit the amount of unrecognized revenue included within its remaining unsatisfied performance obligations due to the inherent substantial economic penalty that would be incurred by its customers upon cancellation.

Life Sciences Segment

Transaction Price Allocated to Remaining Unsatisfied Performance Obligations

As of September 30, 2023, the transaction price allocated to remaining unsatisfied performance obligations consisted of $11.9 million of broadcast station revenues of which $5.1 million is expected to be recognized within one year and $6.8 million is expected to be recognized within the next 4 years.

On December 31, 2022, Broadcasting shut-down the operations and broadcasting of the Azteca America network and, had terminated both the PLA and BSA with TV Azteca. HC2 Network did not qualify for discontinued operations presentation as HC2 Network was not significant to the Company, did not represent a strategic shift and will not have a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results. As a result of the cessation of the Azteca operations, the Company no longer has any unsatisfied performance obligations related to network advertising or network distribution.

Equity Method Investments

The Company's equity method investments as of September 30, 2023 are comprised of investments in MediBeacon and Triple Ring, and, as of December 31, 2022, were comprised of investments in MediBeacon, Triple Ring and HMN.

The Company's share of net losses from its equity method investments totaled $1.5 million and $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company's share of net losses from its equity method investments totaled $5.8 million and $2.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company accounts for its Triple Ring equity method investment results on a one-month lag basis.

MediBeacon

Pansend accounts for MediBeacon's preferred stock as an equity method investment, inclusive of any fixed maturity securities (notes) issued by Pansend to MediBeacon. On March 15, 2022, Pansend issued MediBeacon a $4.5 million 8.0% convertible note due March 2025, increasing the total outstanding principal to $5.0 million. On August 31, 2023 and September 13, 2023, Pansend issued $0.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of 12% convertible notes due September 2026 to MediBeacon, increasing the total outstanding principal to $6.0 million.

On February 23, 2023, pursuant to its amended commercial partnership with Huadong Medicine Co. Ltd ("Huadong"), a publicly traded company on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, MediBeacon issued $7.5 million of its preferred stock to Huadong in exchange for additional shares of preferred stock, which decreased Pansend's ownership in MediBeacon from approximately 47% as of December 31, 2022 to approximately 46% subsequent to the transaction. As a result of this equity transaction, Pansend recognized a gain of $3.8 million in Other income (expense), net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, which increased Pansend's basis in MediBeacon. Concurrently, Pansend recognized equity method losses of $3.8 million which were previously unrecognized because Pansend's carrying amount of its investment in MediBeacon had been previously reduced to zero. During the month of September 2023, as a result of the additional $1.0 million in 12% convertible notes issued to MediBeacon, Pansend recognized an additional $1.0 million of equity method losses which were previously unrecognized because Pansend's carrying amount of its investment in MediBeacon had been previously reduced to zero. Cumulative unrecognized equity method losses relating to MediBeacon were $7.5 million as of September 30, 2023.

As of September 30, 2023, Pansend's carrying amount of its investment in MediBeacon remains at zero, inclusive of the $6.0 million in convertible notes.

For both the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, Pansend earned $0.1 million of interest income from the convertible notes with MediBeacon, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, Pansend earned $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively, of interest income.

On December 30, 2022, Broadcasting entered into a Seventh Omnibus Amendment to Secured Notes which, among other things, extended the maturity date of $52.2 million of its Senior Secured Notes, due December 30, 2022 to May 31, 2024. The effective interest rates on the notes range from 12.8% to 19.6%. Interest is capitalized and payable upon maturity of the principal. The $52.2 million of Senior Secured Notes consisted of $19.3 million of 8.5% Senior Secured Notes and $32.9 million of 10.5% Senior Secured Notes. The other terms of the $19.3 million 8.5% Senior Notes remained the same. At the time of the extension, Broadcasting had accrued interest and other fees of $6.9 million. The interest rate on the $32.9 million 10.5% Senior Notes was increased to 11.45% and cumulative accrued interest and exit fees of $17.5 million were capitalized into the principal balance with both note extensions accounted for as debt modification events. All other terms were essentially the same. Total outstanding principal after the refinancing was $69.7 million, and $6.9 million of accrued interest and fees remain accrued, with total exit fees of $7.6 million which were recorded as original issue discount with a corresponding liability reflected in Other Liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Concurrently therewith and as part of the consideration for extending the 10.5% Senior Notes in December 2022, Broadcasting amended warrants to purchase 145,825 shares of common stock of HC2 Broadcasting Holdings, Inc. common stock held by the lenders of the 10.5% Senior Notes by extending the time to exercise such to the second half of 2026 and reducing the exercise price per share (i) from $140.00 to $0.01 in the case of the certain of the warrants and (ii) from $130.00 to $0.01 in the case of the remaining warrants. The warrants have a five-year term and are exercisable at any time. The change in the fair value of the warrants was recorded as original issue discount with a corresponding impact reflected in Non-controlling interest of $3.1 million.

On August 8, 2023, Broadcasting entered into an Eighth Amendment to Secured Notes with its lenders which extended the maturity date of its Senior Secured Notes aggregate principal amount of $69.7 million, from May 31, 2024 to August 15, 2024. In exchange, Broadcasting incurred an additional exit fee of $1.1 million which was recorded as original issue discount with a corresponding liability reflected in Other Liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

In exchange, INNOVATE has agreed to utilize proceeds from the sale of any of its existing operations, as allowable under the Company's current agreements and after all other required payments, for repayment of a portion of Broadcasting's Senior Secured Notes, plus an additional exit fee upon such a repayment of $1.0 million if repayment occurs by November 9, 2024, and $2.0 million if repayment occurs after that date. Upon payment of the exit fee, the lenders also agree to return their equity interests in HC2 Broadcasting Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiary equity interests.

2026 Senior Secured Notes

The $330.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.50% senior secured notes due February 1, 2026 (the "2026 Senior Secured Notes") was issued in 2021 at 100% of par, with a stated interest rate of 8.50% and an effective interest rate of 9.26%, which reflects $2.7 million of deferred financing fees. Aggregate interest expense, including the contractual interest coupon and amortization of the deferred financing fees, was $7.5 million for both the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Aggregate interest expense, including the contractual interest coupon and amortization of the deferred financing fees, was $22.6 million for both the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

2026 Convertible Notes

The $51.8 million of 7.50% convertible notes (the "2026 Convertible Notes") was issued under a separate indenture dated February 1, 2021, between the Company and U.S. Bank, as trustee (the "Convertible Indenture"). The 2026 Convertible Notes were issued at 100% of par with a stated interest rate of 7.50%. The fair value of the embedded conversion feature contained in the 2026 Convertible Notes had a fair value of $12.3 million, which was recorded as a premium on the 2026 Convertible Notes. The 2026 Convertible Notes mature on August 1, 2026 unless earlier converted, redeemed or purchased. The 2026 Convertible Notes have an effective interest rate of 3.21%, which reflects the initial $12.3 million premium and $1.1 million of deferred financing fees.

Each $1,000 of principal of the 2026 Convertible Notes will initially be convertible into 234.2971 shares of our common stock, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $4.27 per share, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of specified events.

As of September 30, 2023, the 2026 Convertible Notes had a net carrying value of $57.8 million inclusive of an unamortized premium of $6.6 million and unamortized deferred financing costs of $0.6 million. Based on the closing price of our common stock of $1.62 on September 30, 2023, the if-converted value of the 2026 Convertible Notes did not exceed its principal value.

For both the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, interest expense recognized relating to both the contractual interest coupon and amortization of discount net of premium was $0.5 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, aggregate interest expense recognized relating to both the contractual interest coupon and amortization of discount net of premium and deferred financing costs was $1.4 million and $1.5 million, respectively.

Line of Credit

The Company has a revolving credit agreement with MSD PCOF Partners IX, LLC, which has a maximum commitment of $20.0 million ("Revolving Line of Credit "). The Revolving Line of Credit, has an interest rate margin applicable to loans borrowed under the Revolving Line of Credit of 5.75% and interest is paid quarterly. On April 25, 2023, the Company extended the maturity date of its Revolving Credit Agreement from February 23, 2024, to March 16, 2025, and also changed the benchmark rates for interest to SOFR-based rates and lowered the amount of net cash proceeds from certain asset sales in excess of which a prepayment is required from $50.0 million to $10.0 million. The affirmative and negative covenants governing the Revolving Line of Credit are substantially consistent with the affirmative and negative covenants contained in the indenture that governs the 2026 Senior Secured Notes. In March 2023, the Company paid down $15.0 million of the Revolving Credit Agreement, and in May 2023 and July 2023, INNOVATE drew an aggregate additional $15.0 million under the Revolving Credit Agreement, bringing the outstanding balance to $20.0 million as of September 30, 2023.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, interest expense recognized relating to the contractual interest coupon was $0.8 million and $1.3 million, respectively.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

Income Taxes

12. Income Taxes

The Company used the Annual Effective Tax Rate ("ETR") approach of ASC 740-270, Interim Reporting, to calculate its 2023 interim tax provision.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, income tax was an expense of $1.1 million and a benefit of $2.0 million, respectively. Income tax expense was $3.2 million and $1.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively. The income tax expense relates to tax expense as calculated under ASC 740 for taxpaying entities. Additionally, the tax benefits associated with losses generated by the INNOVATE Corp. U.S. tax consolidated group and certain other businesses have been reduced by a full valuation allowance as management does not believe it is more-likely-than-not that the losses will be utilized. Additionally, the annual ETR calculated for the current period interim tax provision included a $1.1 million tax benefit, consisting of a current tax expense of $4.4 million related to a foreign tax payment and a deferred tax benefit of $5.5 million related to the reversal of the deferred tax liability associated with the $11.3 million put option, both of which were related to the sale of New Saxon's 19% investment in HMN on March 6, 2023. The income tax benefit recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and the income tax expense recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 included the net tax savings of $2.9 million from the CGIC consolidation in the 2021 tax return, resulting in a partial release of the valuation allowance.

Net Operating Losses

At December 31, 2022, the Company had gross U.S. net operating loss carryforwards available to reduce future taxable income of the U.S. consolidated group in the amount of $226.3 million. The Company expects that approximately $162.9 million of the gross U.S. net operating loss carryforwards would be available to offset taxable income in 2023 and later periods. The amount of U.S. net operating loss carryforwards reflected in the financial statements differ from the amounts reported on the U.S. tax return due to uncertain tax positions related to tax laws and regulations that are subject to varied interpretation by the IRS.

Additionally, the Company has $121.2 million of gross U.S. net operating loss carryforwards from its subsidiaries that do not qualify to be included in the INNOVATE Corp. U.S. consolidated income tax return, including $80.6 million from R2, $38.2 million from DTV America, and other entities of $2.4 million.

Unrecognized Tax Benefits

The Company follows the provision of ASC 740 which prescribes a comprehensive model for how a company should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that the Company has taken or expects to take on a tax return. The Company is subject to challenge from various taxing authorities relative to certain tax planning strategies, including certain intercompany transactions as well as regulatory taxes.

The Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2023, and 2022 related to uncertain tax positions that would impact the effective income tax rate if recognized. The Company has reduced the net operating loss carryforward by $58.7 million for uncertain tax positions based on our interpretation of tax laws and regulations that are subject to varied interpretation by the IRS.

Examinations

The Company conducts business globally, and as a result, INNOVATE or one or more of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the United States federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world. Tax years 2002-2022 remain open for examination.

The Company is currently under examination in various domestic and foreign tax jurisdictions. The open tax years contain matters that could be subject to differing interpretations of applicable tax laws and regulations as they relate to the amount, character, timing or inclusion of revenue and expenses or the applicability of income tax credits for the relevant tax period. Given the nature of tax audits, there is a risk that disputes may arise.

13. Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

The Company is subject to claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. Such matters are inherently uncertain, and there can be no guarantee that the outcome of any such matter will be decided favorably to the Company or that the resolution of any such matter will not have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company does not believe that any of such pending claims and legal proceedings will have a material adverse effect on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company records a liability in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for these matters when a loss is known or considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The Company reviews these estimates each accounting period as additional information is known and adjusts the loss provision when appropriate. If a matter is both probable to result in a liability and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company estimates and discloses the possible loss or range of loss to the extent necessary for its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements not to be misleading. If the loss is not probable or cannot be reasonably estimated, a liability is not recorded in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Any legal or other expenses associated with the litigation are accrued for as the expenses are incurred.

Based on a review of the current facts and circumstances with counsel in each of the matters disclosed, management has provided for what is believed to be a reasonable estimate of loss exposure. While acknowledging the uncertainties of litigation, management believes that the ultimate outcome of litigation will not have a material effect on its financial position and will defend itself vigorously.

DTV Derivative Litigation

On March 15, 2021, twenty-two DTV stockholders and eight holders of DTV stock options filed a stockholder class action and derivative complaint in the Delaware Court of Chancery in an action styled Bocock, et al., v. HC2 Holdings, Inc. et al., C.A. No. 2021-0224 (Del. Ch.). Plaintiffs named as defendants INNOVATE Corp. (f/k/a HC2 Holdings, Inc.), HC2 Broadcasting Holdings, Inc., HC2 Broadcasting Inc., and Continental General Insurance Corporation (the “INNOVATE Entities”) and certain current and former officers and directors of the INNOVATE Entities and DTV, including Philip Falcone, Michael Sena, Wayne Barr, Jr., Les Levi, Paul Voigt, Ivan Minkov, and Paul Robinson (the “Individual Defendants”). Plaintiffs principally allege that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties and/or aided and abetted breaches of fiduciary duty by participating in a “scheme” in which the INNOVATE Entities (i) acquired majority voting and operating control over DTV; (ii) exploited that control to misappropriate DTV’s assets and business opportunities for the benefit of the INNOVATE Entities; and (iii) purchased DTV stock at a discount to fair value and diminished the value of DTV stock options. Plaintiffs allege that the Individual Defendants (i) “prompted” the INNOVATE Entities to purchase more than 100 low-power television (“LPTV”) broadcast stations originally identified for potential acquisition by DTV, (ii) allowed the INNOVATE Entities to misappropriate DTV technology, known as “DTV Cast,” (iii) caused DTV to transfer unspecified LPTV broadcasting station licenses to INNOVATE affiliates “without paying any value,” and (iv) transferred to the INNOVATE Entities unspecified DTV broadcasting stations that had been “repacked” by the FCC. Defendants moved to dismiss the Complaint on May 19, 2021. On June 23, 2021, plaintiffs amended their complaint. In the amended complaint, plaintiffs assert the same claims they asserted in their initial complaint, added a claim for waste associated with DTV’s purported transfer of licenses and construction permits for less than fair value, and dropped Paul Robinson as a defendant. Defendants moved to dismiss the amended complaint in its entirety on August 25, 2021, and the parties completed briefing on the motions to dismiss on November 10, 2021. The Court heard argument on the motions to dismiss on March 29, 2022. On June 28, 2022, the Court requested that the parties submit supplemental briefing on the motions to dismiss by July 20, 2022. The parties completed the supplemental briefing on July 20, 2022.

On October 28, 2022, the Court issued a Memorandum Opinion on Defendants’ motion to dismiss the Complaint. First, the Court dismissed all claims against Continental General Insurance Corporation for lack of personal jurisdiction. Second, the Court dismissed all claims the stockholder plaintiffs purported to assert directly. Third, the Court dismissed as time-barred all claims challenging conduct that occurred before March 15, 2018, including claims challenging (i) the November 2017 acquisition of Azteca America by INNOVATE; (ii) INNOVATE’s purported usurpation of the so-called “DTV Cast” technology; and (iii) the WFWC-CD Station acquisition. Fourth, the Court dismissed claims associated with the INNOVATE Entities’ purported purchases of unidentified broadcasting stations. Fifth, the Court dismissed all claims challenging the Expense Sharing Agreement, and the Right to Use Agreement between INNOVATE and DTV, and certain Stock-Based Compensation Agreements. Sixth, the Court dismissed the aiding and abetting claim against the INNOVATE Entities. Seventh, the Court dismissed the civil conspiracy claim as to all defendants. Lastly, the Court dismissed the option-holders’ claim for tortious interference with prospective business opportunities. Thus, after the Court issued its October 28, 2022 Memorandum Opinion, the only claims to survive Defendants’ motion to dismiss are (i) a derivative claim against the INNOVATE Entities (other than Continental General), Levi, and Falcone for breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the $0.1 million Frank Digital acquisition; (ii) a derivative claim for breach of fiduciary duty against the INNOVATE Entities (other than Continental General), in their capacities as DTV’s controlling stockholders, relating to the sale of six licenses (for less than $0.5 million) in connection with the Gray Media sale; (iii) a derivative claim for breach of fiduciary duty against the INNOVATE Entities (other than Continental General) and Levi in connection with the transfer of licenses ultimately sold to TV-49 for $0.1 million; and (iv) a derivative claim for waste against Levi and Falcone in connection with the sale of two stations to Lowcountry, which Lowcountry later sold for $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively. The Company believes these remaining claims are without merit, and the Company intends to vigorously defend this litigation.

Marin Hospital Replacement Litigation

On October 20, 2022, McCarthy Building Companies, Inc. (“McCarthy”) filed suit against Schuff Steel Company (“Schuff”), a subsidiary of DBMG, and Quality Assurance Engineering, Inc. dba Consolidated Engineering Laboratories (“CEL”) in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Marin, styled McCarthy Building Companies, Inc. v. Schuff Steel Company; Quality Engineering, Inc. dba Consolidated Engineering Laboratories, et al., Case No. CIV2203963 (the “Action”). In the Action, McCarthy alleges damages and delays caused by alleged failures in fabrication, erection, welding, and quality control by Schuff and improper quality assurance responsibilities by CEL on the Marin General Hospital Replacement Building (the “Project”). McCarthy asserts claims against Schuff for breach of contract, express indemnity, breach of express warranties, negligence, equitable implied indemnity, breach of implied warranties, and declaratory relief. On February 13, 2023, Schuff filed its response denying liability to McCarthy and asserting a Cross-Complaint against McCarthy, and other companies involved in the design, construction, and quality assurance, who potentially are liable for damages and delays alleged by McCarthy on the Project. In the Cross-Complaint, Schuff asserts claims for breach of contract, violation of statute, equitable indemnity apportionment, and contribution and express indemnity (the “Cross-Complaint”). Schuff intends to vigorously defend this Action and aggressively pursue the Cross-Complaint and cannot reasonably estimate any range of potential loss at this time.

Meruelo Television litigation

On August 8, 2023, Meruelo Television, LLC ("Meruelo" or "Plaintiff") commenced a lawsuit in the Superior Court of the State of California, Los Angeles County, with the filing of a Complaint (the "Original Complaint") naming as defendants HC2 Network, Inc. ("HC2"), Innovate Corp. ("Innovate" and, together with HC2, "Defendants"), and Does 1 through 20, in the matter titled Meruelo Television, LLC v. HC2 Network, Inc., et al. (Cal. Supr. Ct.) Case No. 23ST-cv-18552.

On September 29, 2023, Defendants filed a Notice of Removal, removing the case from California state court to federal court in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, where it has been assigned Case No. 2:23-cv-08184-AB-BFM. On October 6, 2023, the Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Original Complaint.

On October 27, 2023, Plaintiff filed its First Amended Complaint (the "FAC"), rendering both Plaintiff's Original Complaint and Defendants' motion to dismiss the Original Complaint moot. The FAC asserts six (6) causes of action against Defendants: (1) Breach of Contract, (2) Breach of the Implied Covenant of Good Faith and Fair Dealing, (3) Negligent Misrepresentation, (4) Intentional Misrepresentation, (5) Tortious Interference with Contract, and (6) Tortious Interference with Prospective Economic Relations. Per the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, Defendants' response to the FAC is due on or before November 10, 2023.

INNOVATE is unable to assess the probability of loss or range of potential loss from this litigation at this time and intends to vigorously defend the litigation.

The Company’s preferred shares authorized, issued and outstanding consisted of the following:

	September 30, 2023	December 31, 2022
Preferred shares authorized, $0.001 par value	20,000,000	20,000,000
Series A-3 shares issued and outstanding	6,125	6,125
Series A-4 shares issued and outstanding	10,000	10,000

Series A-3 and Series A-4 Shares

Issuance and Conversion. On July 1, 2021 (the "Exchange Date") as a part of the sale of Continental Insurance Group ("CIG"), INNOVATE entered into an exchange agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") with Continental General Insurance Company ("CGIC"), also a former subsidiary, which held the remaining shares of the Series A and Series A-2 Preferred Stock and was eliminated in consolidation prior to the sale of the Company's former Insurance segment on July 1, 2021. Per the Exchange Agreement, INNOVATE exchanged 6,125 shares of the Series A and 10,000 shares of the Series A-2 shares that CGIC held for an equivalent number of Series A-3 Convertible Participating Preferred Stock ("Series A-3") and Series A-4 Convertible Participating Preferred Stock ("Series A-4"), respectively. The terms remained substantially the same, except that the Series A-3 and Series A-4 will mature on July 1, 2026. A cash payment of $0.3 million was made as a part of the exchange for accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series A and Series A-2 being exchanged.

Upon issuance of the Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock on July 1, 2021, the Series A-3 and Series A-4 have been classified as temporary equity in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet with a combined redemption value of $16.1 million and with a current fair value of $16.7 million as of September 30, 2023.

Dividends. The Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock accrue a cumulative quarterly cash dividend at an annualized rate of 7.50%. The accrued values of the Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock accrete quarterly at an annualized rate of 4.00% that is reduced to 2.00% or 0.0% if the Company achieves specified rates of growth measured by increases in its net asset value; provided, that the accreting dividend rate will be 7.25% in the event that (A) the daily volume weighted average price ("VWAP") of the Company's common stock is less than a certain threshold amount, (B) the Company's common stock is not registered under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (C) the Company's common stock is not listed on certain national securities exchanges or the Company is delinquent in the payment of any cash dividends. The Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock is also entitled to participate in cash and in-kind distributions to holders of shares of Company's common stock on an as-converted basis.

Subsequent Measurement. The Company elected to account for the Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock by immediately recognizing changes in the redemption value as they occur. The carrying values of the Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock are adjusted to equal what the redemption amount would be as if the redemption were to occur at the end of the reporting period as if it were also the redemption date for the Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock. Any cash dividends paid directly reduce the carrying value of the Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock until the carrying value equals the redemption value. The Company has a history of paying dividends on its preferred stock and expects to continue to pay such dividends each quarter.

Optional Conversion. Each share of Series A-3 and Series A-4 may be converted by the holder into shares of the Company's common stock at any time based on the then-applicable Conversion Price. Each share of Series A-3 is initially convertible at a conversion price of $4.25 (as it may be adjusted from time to time, the "Series A-3 Conversion Price"), and each share of Series A-4 is initially convertible at a conversion price of $8.25 (as it may be adjusted from time to time, the "Series A-4 Conversion Price") (“collectively the “Conversion Prices”). The Conversion Prices are subject to adjustment for dividends, certain distributions, stock splits, combinations, reclassifications, reorganizations, mergers, recapitalizations and similar events, as well as in connection with issuances of equity or equity-linked or other comparable securities by the Company at a price per share (or with a conversion or exercise price or effective issue price) that is below the Conversion Prices’ (which adjustment shall be made on a weighted average basis). Actual conversion prices at the time of the exchange were $3.52 for the Series A and $5.33 for the Series A-2.

Redemption by the Holders / Automatic Conversion. On July 1, 2026, holders of the Series A-3 and Series A-4 shall be entitled to cause the Company to redeem the Series A-3 and Series A-4 at the accrued value per share plus accrued but unpaid dividends (to the extent not included in the accrued value of Series A-3 and Series A-4). Each share of Series A-3 and Series A-4 that is not so redeemed will be automatically converted into shares of the Company's common stock at the Conversion Price then in effect.

Upon a change of control (as defined in each Certificate of Designation) holders of the Series A-3 and Series A-4 shall be entitled to cause the Company to redeem their shares of Series A-3 and Series A-4 at a price per share of Series A-3 and Series A-4 equal to the greater of (i) the accrued value of the Series A-3 and Series A-4, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends (to the extent not included in the accrued value of Series A-3 and Series A-4 Preferred Stock), and (ii) the value that would be received if the share of Series A-3 and Series A-4 were converted into shares of the Company's common stock immediately prior to the change of control.

Redemption by the Company / "Company Call Option". At any time, the Company may redeem the Series A-3/Series A-4, in whole but not in part, at a price per share generally equal to 150% of the accrued value per share, plus accrued but unpaid dividends (to the extent not included in the accrued value of the Series A-3/Series A-4), subject to the holder's right to convert prior to such redemption.

Forced Conversion. The Company may force conversion of the Series A-3 and Series A-4 into shares of the Company's common stock if the common stock's thirty-day VWAP exceeds 150% of the then-applicable Conversion Price and the Common Stock’s daily VWAP exceeds 150% of the then-applicable Conversion Price for at least twenty trading days out of the thirty trading day period used to calculate the thirty-day VWAP. In the event of a forced conversion, the holders of Series A-3 and Series A-4 will have the ability to elect cash settlement in lieu of conversion if certain market liquidity thresholds for the Company's common stock are not achieved.

DBMGi Series A Preferred Stock

Issuance. On November 30, 2018, Continental General Insurance Company (“CGIC”) purchased 40,000 shares of DBMGi's Series A Fixed-to-Floating Rate Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “DBMGi Preferred Stock”), which was then eliminated in consolidation. On July 1, 2021, as a part of the sale of Continental Insurance Group ("CIG") which resulted in the deconsolidation of the entity, the Company was deemed to have issued $40.9 million of DBMGi Series A Preferred Stock to the then deconsolidated CGIC. Upon the deemed issuance of the DBMGi Series A Preferred Stock on July 1, 2021, the DBMGi Series A Preferred Stock was classified as temporary equity in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. There are 500,000 shares with a par value of $0.001 each authorized for issuance. Subsequent to the issuance of the DBMGi Preferred Stock, 1,820.25 shares were issued as payment in kind for dividends, resulting in a total of 41,820.25 shares of DBMGi's Series A Preferred Stock outstanding.

Redemption. The DBMGi Preferred Stock is redeemable at any time, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company, or at any time or by the holder prior to July 2026. On March 15, 2023, DBMGi received a redemption notice from CGIC requesting that DBMGi redeem 41,820.25 shares of DBMGi Preferred Stock, representing all of the issued and outstanding shares of DBMGi Preferred Stock, within 60 days of the notice, or by May 15, 2023. On May 9, 2023, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement and Subordinated Unsecured Promissory Note with CGIC whereby INNOVATE purchased the 41,820.25 shares of DBMGi Preferred Stock for full satisfaction of the redemption notice. In full consideration of the DBMGi Preferred Stock as well as the accrued dividend of $0.4 million, the Company paid CGIC $7.1 million on May 9, 2023, and issued a subordinated unsecured promissory note to CGIC in the principal amount of $35.1 million. The promissory note is due February 28, 2026, and bears interest at 9% per annum through May 8, 2024, 16% per annum from May 9, 2024 to May 8, 2025, and 32% per annum thereafter. Refer to Note 11. Debt Obligations for additional information on the promissory note.

The DBMGi Series A Preferred Stock was measured each reporting period at its maximum redemption value, which was equal to the stated value plus all accrued, accumulated and unpaid dividends as of the end of each reporting period, as they were currently redeemable. The carrying amount as of May 9, 2023 was $41.8 million as well as the accrued dividend of $0.4 million and subsequently there was no gain or loss on the purchase of the DBMGi Preferred Stock from CGIC.

Dividends. The DBMGi Series A Preferred Stock accrued a cumulative quarterly cash or payment in kind dividend at a rate of (a) for the first five years following the date of issuance, (i) 9.00% per annum if dividends are paid in kind or (ii) 8.25% per annum if dividends are paid in cash and (b) starting on the fifth anniversary of the date of issuance, a rate per annum equal to (i) LIBOR (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) plus a spread of 5.85% (together, the “LIBOR Rate”) per annum, plus 0.75% if dividends are paid in kind or (ii) the LIBOR Rate per annum in the case of dividends paid in cash. Subsequent to the transition away from LIBOR beginning in 2023, the Certificate of Designation allows for a LIBOR Successor Rate, which allows the Company to reasonably determine an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmarks (if any) incorporated therein) giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks. Subsequent to May 9, 2023, the date that INNOVATE purchased the DBMGi Preferred Stock, the dividends are eliminated on consolidation. The dividends and equivalent amounts paid (excluding amounts eliminated on consolidation) are presented in the following tables (in millions):

2023

Declaration Date and Holders of Record Date	March 31, 2023		May 9, 2023 *
Payment Date	April 17, 2023		May 9, 2023 *
Total Dividend	$	0.9	$	0.4

*In connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement entered into with CGIC on May 9, 2023, an equivalent amount to the dividends that had accrued through May 8, 2023 was paid to CGIC on May 9, 2023 as part of the purchase price. $0.1 million was paid in cash and $0.3 million was included in the principal amount of the new unsecured note that was issued on May 9, 2023. The dividends that accrued for the remaining portion of those periods were eliminated on consolidation subsequent to the purchase.

2022

Declaration Date and Holders of Record Date	March 31, 2022		June 30, 2022		September 30, 2022
Payment Date	April 15, 2022		July 15, 2022		October 15, 2022
Total Dividend**	$	0.9	$	0.9	$	0.9

**The dividends paid on April 15, 2022 and October 15, 2022 were cash dividends. The DBMGi Board of Directors elected to pay the second quarter 2022 dividend payable July 15, 2022 in shares.

Redeemable Non-Controlling Interest

The Company has redeemable non-controlling interests related to R2 Technologies in the form of convertible preferred stock that is redeemable upon the occurrence of a change in control, as defined in the respective agreements, i.e., an event that is not solely within the control of the Company and is, therefore, classified outside of permanent equity in the mezzanine section of the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company adjusts the carrying value of these redeemable non-controlling interests based on an allocation of subsidiary earnings (losses) based on ownership interests. As of September 30, 2023, it is not deemed probable that the non-controlling interest will become redeemable as no change in control has occurred or is expected to occur; therefore, no additional adjustment or remeasurement is required under ASC 480-10. As a result of allocation of losses in accordance with ASC 810, the redeemable non-controlling interest related to R2 was negative $8.4 million and negative $3.8 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

R2 Technologies - Liquidation Preference

R2 Technologies has issued multiple A, B, and C-series participating convertible preferred stock (the "R2 Preferred Shares"), all of which contain a liquidation preference. In the event of a liquidation event, each Preferred Share has a liquidation preference to be paid out of the assets legally available for distribution, which entitles the holder of each R2 Preferred Share to receive, before any payments to holders of junior securities, the sum of the following: (i) the accrued value in cash; (ii) all accrued and unpaid dividends, including basic dividends and accreting dividends, if any, and (iii) an amount, in cash or otherwise, equivalent to what the holder would receive if they had converted the R2 Preferred Shares into R2 common stock or reference property just before the liquidation event.

If the assets of R2 legally available for distribution are insufficient to pay these obligations in full, R2 Preferred Shareholders and holders of any parity securities share the remaining assets in proportion to the full respective amounts to which they are entitled. After receiving the full liquidation preference, R2 Preferred Shareholders have no further claim to R2's assets, except for any new securities or instruments received as part of the liquidation preference. The value of non-cash assets distributed equals their fair market value on the distribution date. No holder of junior securities receives any payment unless the entire liquidation preference of R2 Preferred Shares is paid. If there is insufficient cash to pay the entire liquidation preference and any liquidation preference in respect of any parity securities in full in cash upon a liquidation event, R2 Preferred Shareholders and parity securities holders will share available cash proportionally.

R2 Technologies' total liquidation preference upon a hypothetical liquidation event, including the liquidation preference for Pansend Life Sciences, LLC was $110.2 million and $104.0 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, of which $47.1 million and $44.5 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, was attributable to redeemable non-controlling interests, inclusive of initial preferred stock and unpaid accreted dividends. However, as of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, R2 Technologies had negative net assets after consideration of intercompany and third party debt, and, therefore, there would be no legally available funds to satisfy such liquidation preferences upon a hypothetical liquidation event.

Stockholders’ Rights Agreement - Tax Benefits Preservation Plan

On August 30, 2021, the Company entered into a Tax Benefits Preservation Plan (the “Preservation Plan”) with Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as Rights Agent. The Preservation Plan is designed to protect the Company’s ability to use its tax net operating losses and certain other tax assets (“Tax Benefits”) by deterring an “ownership change” as defined under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Treasury Regulations thereunder (the “Code”). If any person or group acquires 4.9% or more of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock (subject to certain exceptions), there would be a triggering event under the Preservation Plan which could result in significant dilution in the ownership interest of such person or group. As such, the Preservation Plan has anti-takeover effects. In connection with the adoption of the Preservation Plan, the Company disclosed that given the change-over in the Company’s stock over the past several years, the Company was approaching the risk of losing its Tax Benefits. The Preservation Plan terminated on March 31, 2023.

On April 1, 2023, as a result of the expiration of the Preservation Plan on March 31, 2023, the Company entered into a new Tax Benefits Preservation Plan (the “2023 Plan”) with Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as rights agent (the “Rights Agent”), and the Board of Directors of the Company declared a dividend distribution of one right (a “Right”) for each outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) to stockholders of record at the close of business on April 10, 2023 (the “Record Date”). Each Right is governed by the terms of the Plan and entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company a unit consisting of one one-thousandth of a share (a “Unit”) of Series B Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), at a purchase price of $15.00 per Unit, subject to adjustment (the “Purchase Price”).

Rights Certificates and Exercise Period

Initially, the Rights will be attached to all Common Stock certificates representing shares then outstanding, and no separate rights certificates (“Rights Certificates”) will be distributed. Subject to certain exceptions specified in the 2023 Plan, the Rights will separate from the Common Stock then outstanding and a distribution date (the “Distribution Date”) will occur upon the earlier of (i) 10 business days following a public announcement that a person or group of affiliated or associated persons (an “Acquiring Person”) has become the beneficial owner of 4.9% or more of the shares of the Common Stock (the “Stock Acquisition Date”) and (ii) 10 business days (or such later date as the Board shall determine) following the commencement of a tender offer or exchange offer that would result in a person or group becoming an Acquiring Person.

Until the Distribution Date, (i) the Rights will be evidenced by the Common Stock certificates (or, in the case of book entry shares, by the notations in the book entry accounts) and will be transferred with and only with such Common Stock, (ii) new Common Stock certificates issued after the Record Date will contain a notation incorporating the 2023 Plan by reference and (iii) the surrender for transfer of any certificates for Common Stock outstanding will also constitute the transfer of the Rights associated with the Common Stock represented by such certificates. Pursuant to the 2023 Plan, the Company reserves the right (prior to the occurrence of a Triggering Event (as defined below) and upon any exercise of Rights) to make the necessary and appropriate rounding adjustments so that only whole shares of Series B Preferred Stock will be issued.

The definition of “Acquiring Person” contained in the 2023 Plan contains several exemptions, including for (i) the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries; (ii) any employee benefit plan of the Company, or of any subsidiary of the Company, or any person or entity organized, appointed or established by the Company for or pursuant to the terms of any such plan; (iii) any person who becomes the beneficial owner of 4.9% or more of the shares of the Common Stock then outstanding as a result of (x) a reduction in the number of shares of Common Stock by the Company due to a or (y) a stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or similar transaction, unless and until such person increases his ownership by more than 0.5% over such person’s lowest percentage stock ownership on or after the consummation of the relevant transaction; (iv) any person who, together with all affiliates and associates of such person, was the beneficial owner of 4.9% or more of the shares of the Common Stock then outstanding on the date of the 2023 Plan, unless and until such person and its affiliates and associates increase their aggregate ownership by more than 0.5% over their lowest percentage stock ownership on or after the date of the 2023 Plan or decrease their aggregate percentage stock ownership below 4.9%; (v) any person who, within 10 business days of being requested by the Company to do so, certifies to the Company that such person became an Acquiring Person inadvertently or without knowledge of the terms of the Rights and who, together with all affiliates and associates, thereafter within 10 business days following such certification disposes of such number of shares of Common Stock so that it, together with all affiliates and associates, ceases to be an Acquiring Person; (vi) any person that the Board, in its sole discretion, has affirmatively determined shall not be deemed an Acquiring Person.

The Rights are not exercisable until the Distribution Date and will expire at the earliest of (i) 11:59 p.m. (New York City time) on October 1, 2023 or such later date and time as may be determined by the Board and approved by the stockholders of the Company by a vote of the majority of the votes cast by the holders of shares entitled to vote thereon at a meeting of the stockholders of the Company prior to 11:59 p.m. (New York City time) on October 1, 2023 (which later date and time shall be in no event later than 11:59 p.m. (New York City time) on October 1, 2026), (ii) the time at which the Rights are redeemed or exchanged as provided in the 2023 Plan, (iii) the time at which the Board determines that the 2023 Plan is no longer necessary or desirable for the preservation of Tax Benefits, and (iv) the close of business on the first day of a taxable year of the Company to which the Board determines that no Tax Benefits may be carried forward.

On June 15, 2023, holders of the Company’s Common Stock and Preferred Stock, voting as a single class and with the Preferred Stock voting on an as-converted basis, voted to ratify the amendment of the Tax Benefit Preservation Plan adopted by the Board of Directors on April 1, 2023, to extend the Final Expiration Date from October 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024, or such later date and time as may be subsequently approved.

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Common Share

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Common Share

18. Basic and Diluted Loss Per Common Share

Earnings (loss) per share ("EPS") is calculated using the two-class method, which allocates earnings among common stock and participating securities to calculate EPS when an entity's capital structure includes either two or more classes of common stock or common stock and participating securities. Unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities. As such, shares of any unvested restricted stock of the Company are considered participating securities; however, they do not participate in losses and as such are excluded from the computation of basic earnings (loss) per share during periods of net losses. The dilutive effect, if applicable, of stock options and their equivalents (including non-vested stock issued under stock-based compensation plans), is computed using the "if-converted method" if this measurement is determined to be more dilutive between the two available methods in a period.

The Company had no dilutive common stock equivalents during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 due to the results from continuing operations being a loss, net of tax. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, 816,524 and 1,039,513, respectively, of common stock equivalents from unvested restricted stock were excluded from the weighted average number of shares used to calculate diluted loss per share as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. Other instruments that may, in the future, if the average market price of the Company's stock exceeds the conversion prices, have a dilutive effect on earnings per share, but were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 are: preferred stock, convertible debt and stock options. The following table presents a reconciliation of net loss used in the basic and diluted EPS calculations (in millions, except per share amounts):

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and all other subsidiaries over which the Company exerts control. All intercompany profits, transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The remaining interests not owned by the Company are presented as a non-controlling interest component of total equity.

Basis of Presentation and Liquidity

Basis of Presentation and Liquidity

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of such information. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Certain information and note disclosures, including a description of significant accounting policies normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"), have been condensed or omitted in these interim unaudited financial statements pursuant to such rules and regulations. Certain prior amounts have been reclassified or combined to conform to the current year presentation.

These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 14, 2023. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results for any subsequent periods or the entire fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions used.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in the Current Year

Credit Loss Standard

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This new standard and its related amendments change the impairment model for most financial assets that are measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments, including trade receivables and contract assets, from an incurred loss model to an expected loss model and adds certain new required disclosures. Under the new expected loss model, which is based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts, entities recognize estimated credit losses over the entire contractual term of the instrument rather than delaying recognition of credit losses until it is probable the loss has been incurred.

The adoption of ASU 2016-13 and its related amendments on January 1, 2023, did not have any effect on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial statements and did not record any effects through retained earnings. For the amounts calculated for the Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) model subsequent to initial transition, the Company recognizes the expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, and the amount is presented within general and administration costs rather than a separate line. Refer to Note 4. Accounts Receivable, Net.

The Company reviewed its entire portfolio of assets recognized on the balance sheet as of January 1, 2023, and identified Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets as the material impacted assets in-scope of Topic 326. The risk of credit losses from the remaining portfolio of assets was concluded to be immaterial. Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets are presented net of allowances for credit losses. Refer to Note 4. Accounts Receivable, Net. At each balance sheet date, all potentially uncollectible accounts are assessed individually for the purpose of determining the appropriate provision for doubtful accounts. Management has elected to use a risk-based, pool-level segmentation framework to calculate the expected loss rate. Management evaluates its experience with historical losses and then applies this historical loss ratio to financial assets with similar characteristics. The Company’s historical loss ratio or its determination of risk pools may be adjusted for changes in customer, economic, market or other circumstances. The Company may also establish an allowance for credit losses for specific receivables when it is probable that the receivable will not be collected and the loss can be reasonably estimated. Amounts are written off against the allowance when they are considered to be uncollectible, and reversals of previously reserved amounts are recognized if a specifically reserved item is settled for an amount exceeding the previous estimate.

Accounting Pronouncements Issued But Pending Adoption

In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-01, Leases (Topic 842): Common Control Arrangements (“ASU 2023-01”) to improve the guidance for applying Topic 842, Leases, to related party arrangements between entities under common control. ASU 2023-01 improves current GAAP by clarifying the accounting for leasehold improvements associated with common control leases, thereby reducing diversity in practice. The provisions of this ASU that apply to public companies include a requirement for entities to amortize leasehold improvements associated with common control leases over the useful life of the common control group. ASU 2023-01 is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this ASU but does not expect ASU 2023-01 to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On October 9, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06 Disclosure Improvements:Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC's Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative ("ASU 2023-06"), which modifies certain disclosure and presentation requirements of a variety of Topics in the Codification and is intended to both clarify or improve such requirements and align the requirements with the SEC's regulations. The Company is in the process of evaluating the amendments provided in the Update and believes certain of the disclosure improvements may be applicable to the Company's interim or annual disclosures, for example, disclosures related to: earnings-per-share computation for dilutive securities, preferred stock, amounts and terms of unused lines of credit and unfunded commitments and the weighted-average interest rate on short-term borrowings. The effective date for each amendment is the effective date of the removal of the related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K, with early adoption prohibited. The Company will apply the provisions prospectively as such provisions become effective, and does not expect ASU 2023-06 to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Subsequent Events

Subsequent EventsASC 855, Subsequent Events requires the Company to evaluate events that occur after the balance sheet date as of which the financial statements are issued, and to determine whether adjustments to or additional disclosures in the financial statements are necessary.
