We may, in some cases, use words such as "project," "predict," "believe," "anticipate," "plan," "expect," "estimate," "intend," "should," "would," "could," "potentially," "may," or other words that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes to identify these forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical or current fact are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of federal and state securities laws. Forward looking statements include, among other things, (i) statements as to our future performance or liquidity, such as expectations for our results of operation, net income, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted earnings, and ability to make quarterly distributions and (ii) our plans, strategies and objectives for future operations, including our business outlook and planned capital expenditures. Forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, such as those disclosed or incorporated by reference in our filings with the SEC, including, but not limited to, those described under the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 1, 2023, as such factors may be updated from time to time in our filings with the SEC. Many of these risks and uncertainties are beyond our control. Important factors that could cause our actual results, performance and achievements to differ materially from those estimates or projections contained in our forward-looking statements include, among other things:

•changes in general economic, political or business conditions or economic, political or demographic trends in the United States and other countries in which we have a presence, including changes in interest rates and inflation;

•disruption in the global supply chain, labor shortages and high labor costs;

•difficulties and delays in integrating, or business disruptions following, acquisitions or an inability to fully realize cost savings and other benefit related thereto;

•our ability to successfully operate our subsidiary businesses on a combined basis, and to effectively integrate and improve future acquisitions;

•our ability to maintain our credit facilities or incur additional borrowings on terms we deem attractive;

•our ability to remove CGM and CGM’s right to resign;

•our organizational structure, which may limit our ability to meet our dividend and distribution policy;

•our ability to service and comply with the terms of our indebtedness;

•our ability to make distributions in the future to our shareholders;

•our ability to pay the management fee and profit allocation if and when due;

•our ability to make and finance future acquisitions;

•our ability to implement our acquisition and management strategies;

•the legal and regulatory environment in which our subsidiaries operate;

•trends in the industries in which our subsidiaries operate;

•future changes in laws or regulations (including the interpretation of these laws and regulations by regulatory authorities);

•risks associated with possible disruption in operations or the economy generally due to terrorism or natural disaster or social, civil or political unrest;

•environmental risks affecting the business or operations of our subsidiaries;

•our and CGM’s ability to retain or replace qualified employees of our subsidiaries and CGM;

•the impact of the tax reclassifications of the Trust;

•costs and effects of legal and administrative proceedings, settlements, investigations and claims; and

•extraordinary or force majeure events affecting the business or operations of our subsidiary businesses.

Our actual results, performance, prospects or opportunities could differ materially from those expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements. Additional risks of which we are not currently aware or which we currently deem immaterial could also cause our actual results to differ.

In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. The forward-looking events discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may not occur. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

June 30, 2023

Note A - Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

Compass Diversified Holdings, a Delaware statutory trust (the "Trust") and Compass Group Diversified Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "LLC"), were formed to acquire and manage a group of small and middle-market businesses headquartered in North America. Collectively, Compass Diversified Holdings and Compass Group Diversified Holdings, LLC are referred to as the "Company". In accordance with the Third Amended and Restated Trust Agreement, dated as of August 3, 2021 (as amended and restated, the "Trust Agreement"), the Trust is sole owner of 100% of the Trust Interests (as defined in the Company’s Sixth Amended and Restated Operating Agreement, dated as of August 3, 2021 (as amended and restated, the "LLC Agreement")) of the LLC and, pursuant to the LLC Agreement, the LLC has, outstanding, the identical number of Trust Interests as the number of outstanding common shares of the Trust. The LLC is the operating entity with a board of directors and other corporate governance responsibilities, similar to that of a Delaware corporation.

The LLC is a controlling owner of ten businesses, or operating segments, at June 30, 2023. The segments are as follows: 5.11 Acquisition Corp. ("5.11"), Boa Holdings Inc. ("BOA"), The Ergo Baby Carrier, Inc. ("Ergobaby"), Lugano Holdings, Inc. ("Lugano Diamonds" or "Lugano"), Wheelhouse Holdings, Inc. ("Marucci Sports" or "Marucci"), Relentless Intermediate, Inc. ("PrimaLoft"), Velocity Outdoor, Inc. ("Velocity Outdoor" or "Velocity"), AMT Acquisition Corporation ("Arnold"), FFI Compass, Inc. ("Altor Solutions" or "Altor") (formerly "Foam Fabricators"), and Sterno Products, LLC ("Sterno"). The segments are referred to interchangeably as “businesses”, “operating segments” or “subsidiaries” throughout the financial statements. Refer to Note E - "Operating Segment Data" for further discussion of the operating segments. Compass Group Management LLC, a Delaware limited liability Company ("CGM" or the "Manager"), manages the day to day operations of the LLC and oversees the management and operations of our businesses pursuant to a management services agreement (the "Management Services Agreement" or "MSA").

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022 are unaudited, and in the opinion of management, contain all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements. Such adjustments consist solely of normal recurring items. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year or any subsequent interim period. The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP" or "GAAP") and presented as permitted by Form 10-Q and do not contain certain information included in the annual consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of the Company. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Trust and the Company, as well as the businesses acquired as of their respective acquisition date. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Discontinued operating entities are reflected as discontinued operations in the Company's results of operations and statements of financial position.

Discontinued Operations

During the first quarter of 2023, the Company completed the sale of Compass AC Holdings, Inc. (“Advanced Circuits or ACI”). The results of operations of ACI are reported as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. Refer to Note C - "Discontinued Operations" for additional information. Unless otherwise indicated, the disclosures accompanying the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the Company's continuing operations.

12

Seasonality

Earnings of certain of our operating segments are seasonal in nature due to various recurring events, holidays and seasonal weather patterns, as well as the timing of our acquisitions during a given year. Historically, the third and fourth quarters produce the highest net sales during our fiscal year, however, due to various acquisitions since 2020, there is generally less seasonality in our net sales on a consolidated basis than there has been historically.

Note B — Acquisitions

The acquisitions of our businesses are accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. For each platform acquisition, the Company typically structures the transaction so that a newly created holding company acquires 100% of the equity interests in the acquired business. The entirety of the purchase consideration is paid by the newly created holding company to the selling shareholders. The total purchase consideration is the amount paid to the selling shareholders and we will, from time to time, allow the selling shareholder to reinvest a portion of their proceeds alongside the Company at the same price per share, into the holding company that acquires the target business. Once the acquisition is complete, the selling shareholders no longer hold equity interests in the acquired company, but rather hold noncontrolling interest in the holding company that acquired the target business. Because the selling shareholders are investing in the transaction alongside the Company at the same price per share as the Company and are not retaining their existing equity in the acquired business, the Company includes the amount provided by noncontrolling shareholders in the total purchase consideration.

A component of our acquisition financing strategy that we utilize in acquiring the businesses we own and manage is to provide both equity capital and debt capital, raised at the parent level, typically through our existing credit facility. The debt capital is in the form of “intercompany loans” made by the LLC to the newly created holding company and the acquired business and are due from the newly created holding company and the acquired business, and payable to the LLC by the newly created holding company and the acquired business. The selling shareholders of the acquired businesses are not a party to the intercompany loan agreements nor do they have any obligation to repay the intercompany loans. These intercompany loans eliminate in consolidation and are not reflected on the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

Acquisition of PrimaLoft

On July 12, 2022, the LLC, through its newly formed indirect acquisition subsidiary, Relentless Intermediate, Inc. ("PrimaLoft Buyer"), acquired PrimaLoft Technologies Holdings, Inc. (“PrimaLoft”) pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “PrimaLoft Purchase Agreement”), dated June 4, 2022, by and between PrimaLoft Buyer and VP PrimaLoft Holdings, LLC ("PrimaLoft Seller"). The Company acquired PrimaLoft for a total purchase price, including proceeds from noncontrolling shareholders, of approximately $541.1 million. The Company funded the acquisition through a draw on its 2022 Revolving Credit Facility and the proceeds from its $400 million 2022 Term Loan Facility. PrimaLoft management invested in the transaction along with the Company, representing 9.2% of the initial equity interest in PrimaLoft. Concurrent with the closing, the Company provided a credit facility to PrimaLoft pursuant to which a secured revolving loan commitment and secured term loan were made available to PrimaLoft (the "PrimaLoft Credit Agreement"). The initial revolving loan and term loan commitments under these facilities on the closing date were $178 million. CGM received integration service fees of $4.8 million quarterly over the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2023. The Company incurred $5.7 million of transaction costs in conjunction with the PrimaLoft acquisition, which was included in selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations during the third quarter of 2022.

PrimaLoft, Inc. is a branded, advanced material technology company based in Latham, New York and is focused on the research and innovative development of high-performance material solutions, specializing in insulations and fabrics.

The results of operations of PrimaLoft have been included in the consolidated results of operations since the date of acquisition. PrimaLoft's results of operations are reported as a separate operating segment as a branded consumer business. The table below provides the recording of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition.

(in thousands)	Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation		Measurement Period Adjustments		Final Purchase Price Allocation
Purchase Consideration	$	539,576	$	1,536	$	541,112

Cash acquired	7,319		(368)		6,951

Total purchase consideration	$	539,576	$	1,536	$	541,112

(1) The fair value of accounts receivable approximates book value acquired.

The allocation of the purchase price presented above is based on management's estimate of the fair values using valuation techniques including the income, cost and market approach. In estimating the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, the fair value estimates are based on, but not limited to, expected future revenue and cash flows, expected future growth rates and estimated discount rates. Current and noncurrent assets and current and other liabilities are valued at historical carrying values. Inventory is recognized at fair value, with finished goods stated at selling price less an estimated cost to sell. Property, plant and equipment is valued at fair value which approximates book value and will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over the remaining useful lives of the assets. Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired and represents the future economic benefits expected to arise from other intangible assets acquired that do not qualify for separate recognition, including assembled workforce and non-contractual relationships, as well as expected future synergies. The goodwill of $290.3 million reflects the strategic fit of PrimaLoft in the Company's branded consumer business and is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. The PrimaLoft purchase price allocation was finalized in 2023.

14

The intangible assets recorded related to the PrimaLoft acquisition are as follows (in thousands):

Intangible Assets	Fair Value		Estimated Useful Lives
Customer relationships	$	209,100	15 years
Tradename	48,200		20 years
Technology	49,100		11 years
In-process research and development (1)	500		N/a
	$	306,900

(1) In-process research and development is considered indefinite lived until the underlying technology becomes viable, at which point the intangible asset will be amortized over the expected useful life.

The customer relationships were considered the primary intangible asset and was valued at $209.1 million using a multi-period excess earnings method. The technology was valued at $49.1 million using a multi-period excess earnings methodology with an assumed obsolescence factor. The tradename was valued at $48.2 million using a multi period excess earnings method. The multi period excess earnings method assumes an asset has value to the extent that it enables its owners to earn a return in excess of the other assets utilized in the business.

Unaudited pro forma information

The following unaudited pro forma data for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 gives effect to the acquisition of PrimaLoft, as described above, as if this transaction had been completed as of January 1, 2022. The pro forma data gives effect to historical operating results with adjustments to interest expense, amortization and depreciation expense, management fees and related tax effects. The information is provided for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have occurred if the transaction had been consummated on the date indicated, nor is it necessarily indicative of future operating results of the consolidated companies, and should not be construed as representing results for any future period.

The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these goods or services, and excludes any sales incentives or taxes collected from customers which are subsequently remitted to government authorities.

Disaggregated Revenue - The Company disaggregates revenue by strategic business unit and by geography for each strategic business unit which are categories that depict how the nature, amount and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. This disaggregation also represents how the Company evaluates its financial performance, as well as how the Company communicates its financial performance to the investors and other users of its financial statements. Each strategic business unit represents the Company’s reportable segments and offers different products and services.

Note G — Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

As a result of acquisitions of various businesses, the Company has significant intangible assets on its balance sheet that include goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles. The Company’s goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles are tested and reviewed for impairment annually as of March 31st or more frequently if facts and circumstances warrant by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. Each of the Company’s businesses represent a reporting unit.

Goodwill

Annual Impairment Testing

The Company uses a qualitative approach to test goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets for impairment by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform quantitative goodwill impairment testing.

2023 Annual Impairment Testing

The Company determined that the Velocity reporting unit required additional quantitative testing because we could not conclude that the fair value of the reporting unit exceeded its carrying value based on qualitative factors alone. For the reporting units that were tested only on a qualitative basis for the 2023 annual impairment testing, the results of the qualitative analysis indicated that it is more likely than not that the fair value exceeded the carrying value of these reporting units.

23

The quantitative test of Velocity was performed using an income approach to determine the fair value of the reporting unit. The discount rate used in the income approach was 15% and the results of the quantitative impairment testing indicated that the fair value of the Velocity reporting unit exceeded the carrying value by 21%.

2022 Annual Impairment Testing

The results of the qualitative analysis indicated that it was more-likely-than-not that the fair value of each of our reporting units exceeded their carrying value for the 2022 annual impairment testing.

Interim Impairment Testing

2022 Interim Impairment Testing

Ergobaby - The Company performed interim quantitative impairment testing at Ergobaby of goodwill and the indefinite lived tradename at December 31, 2022. As a result of operating results that were below historical and forecast amounts, the Company determined that a triggering event had occurred at Ergobaby. The Company used an income approach for the impairment test, whereby we estimate the fair value of the reporting unit based on the present value of future cash flows. Cash flow projections are based on management's estimate of revenue growth rates and operating margins, and take into consideration industry and market conditions as well as company specific economic factors. The Company used a weighted average cost of capital of 16% in the income approach. The discount rate used was based on the weighted average cost of capital adjusted for the relevant risk associated with business specific characteristics and Ergobaby's ability to execute on projected cash flows. Based on the results of the impairment test, the fair value of Ergobaby did not exceed its carrying value. We recorded goodwill impairment of $20.6 million at December 31, 2022. For the indefinite lived tradename, quantitative testing indicated that the fair value exceeded the carrying value.

The following is a summary of the net carrying amount of goodwill at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, is as follows (in thousands):

	Six months ended June 30, 2023		Year ended   December 31, 2022
Goodwill - gross carrying amount	$	1,151,248	$	1,145,023
Accumulated impairment losses (1)	(78,297)		(78,297)
Goodwill - net carrying amount	$	1,072,951	$	1,066,726

(1) Includes goodwill impairment expense of $20.6 million recorded at Ergobaby, $32.9 million at Velocity and $24.9 million at Arnold.

Long lived assets

Annual indefinite lived impairment testing

The Company used a qualitative approach to test indefinite lived intangible assets for impairment by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of an indefinite lived intangible asset is impaired as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform quantitative impairment testing. The Company evaluated the qualitative factors of each indefinite lived intangible asset in connection with the annual impairment testing for 2023 and 2022. Results of the qualitative analysis indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting units that maintain indefinite lived intangible assets exceeded the carrying value.

Note I — Debt

2022 Credit Facility

On July 12, 2022, the LLC entered into the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "2022 Credit Facility") to amend and restate the 2021 Credit Facility. The 2022 Credit Facility provides for revolving loans, swing line loans and letters of credit ("the 2022 Revolving Line of Credit") up to a maximum aggregate amount of $600 million ("the 2022 Revolving Loan Commitment") and a $400 million term loan (the “2022 Term Loan”). The 2022 Term Loan requires quarterly payments ranging from $2.5 million to $7.5 million, commencing September 30, 2022, with a final payment of all remaining principal and interest due on July 12, 2027, which is the 2022 Term Loan’s maturity date. All amounts outstanding under the 2022 Revolving Line of Credit will become due on July 12, 2027, which is the termination date of the 2022 Revolving Loan Commitment. The 2022 Credit Facility also permits the LLC, prior to the applicable maturity date, to increase the Revolving Loan Commitment and/or obtain additional term loans in an aggregate amount of up to $250 million, subject to certain restrictions and conditions. On the closing date for the 2022 Credit Facility, the 2022 Term Loan was advanced in full and the initial borrowings outstanding under the 2022 Revolving Line of Credit were $115 million. We used the initial proceeds from the 2022 Credit Facility to pay all amounts outstanding under the 2021 Credit Facility, pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the 2022 Credit Facility and fund the acquisition of PrimaLoft.

The LLC may borrow, prepay and reborrow principal under the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility from time to time during its term. Advances under the 2022 Revolving Line of Credit can be either term Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") loans or base rate loans. Term SOFR revolving loans bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each interest period at a rate per annum based on the applicable SOFR as administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (or a successor administrator), as adjusted, plus a margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.50%, based on the ratio of consolidated net indebtedness to adjusted consolidated earnings before interest expense, tax expense, and depreciation and amortization expenses for such period (the “Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio”). Base rate revolving loans bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the highest of (i) Federal Funds rate plus 0.50%, (ii) the “prime rate”, and (iii) the applicable SOFR plus 1.0% (the “Base Rate”), plus a margin ranging from 0.50% to 1.50%, based on the Company's Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio.

Advances under the 2022 Term Loan can be either term SOFR loans or base rate loans. The 2022 Term Loan was advanced in full on the closing date for the 2022 Credit Facility as a Term SOFR loan with an interest period of one month. On the last day of an interest period, Term SOFR loans may be converted to Term SOFR loans of a different interest period or to Base Rate loans. Term SOFR term loans bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each interest period at a rate per annum based on the Term SOFR for such interest period plus a margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.50%, based on the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio. Base rate term loans bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus a margin ranging from 0.50% to 1.50%, based on the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio.

Under the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility, an aggregate amount of up to $100 million in letters of credit may be issued, as well as swing line loans of up to $25 million outstanding at one time. The issuance of such letters of credit and the making of any swing line loan would reduce the amount available under the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility.

Net availability under the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility was approximately $505.8 million at June 30, 2023. Letters of credit outstanding at June 30, 2023 totaled approximately $2.2 million. At June 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all covenants as defined in the 2022 Credit Facility.

The 2022 Revolving Credit Facility is secured by all of the assets of the Company, including all of its equity interests in, and loans to, its subsidiaries.

2021 Credit Facility

On March 23, 2021, we entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "2021 Credit Facility") to amend and restate the 2018 Credit Facility (as previously restated and amended) among the LLC, the lenders from time to time party thereto, and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent. The 2021 Credit Facility provided for revolving loans, swing line loans and letters of credit (the “2021 Revolving Credit Facility”) up to a maximum aggregate amount of $600 million and also permitted the LLC, prior to the applicable maturity date, to increase the revolving loan commitment and/or obtain term loans in an aggregate amount of up to $250 million, subject to certain restrictions and conditions. The LLC repaid the outstanding amounts under the 2021 Credit Facility in the third quarter of 2022 in connection with entering into the 2022 Credit Facility.

Trust Common Shares

The Trust is authorized to issue 500,000,000 Trust common shares and the LLC is authorized to issue a corresponding number of LLC interests. The Company will at all times have the identical number of LLC interests outstanding as Trust shares. Each Trust share represents an undivided beneficial interest in the Trust, and each Trust share is entitled to one vote per share on any matter with respect to which members of the LLC are entitled to vote.

Share repurchase program

In January 2023, the Company's Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase, through December 31, 2023, up to $50 million of its outstanding common shares.

The Company repurchased 96,800 shares for approximately $1.9 million and 306,800 shares for approximately $5.9 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. As of June 30, 2023, $44.1 million remained available to purchase under the share repurchase program.

At-The-Market Equity Offering Program

On September 7, 2021, the Company filed a prospectus supplement pursuant to which the Company may, but has no obligation to, issue and sell up to $500 million common shares of the Trust in amounts and at times to be determined by the Company. Actual sales will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by us from time to time, including, market conditions, the trading price of Trust common shares and determinations by us regarding appropriate sources of funding.

In connection with this offering, the Company entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with B. Riley Securities, Inc. and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (each a “Sales Agent” and, collectively, the “Sales Agents”). The Sales Agreement provides that the Company may offer and sell Trust common shares from time to time through the Sales Agents up to $500 million, in amounts and at times to be determined by the Company. Pursuant to the Sales Agreement, the shares may be offered and sold through each Sales Agent, acting separately, in ordinary brokers’ transactions, to or through a market maker, on or through the New York Stock Exchange or any other market venue where the securities may be traded, in the over-the-counter market, in privately negotiated transactions, in transactions that are deemed to be “at the market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act or through a combination of any such methods of sale.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, there were no sales of Trust common shares under the Sales Agreement as the at-the-market program is not active when the share repurchase program is active.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company sold 1,817,505 and 2,529,938 Trust common shares under the Sales Agreement, respectively. During the same periods, the Company received total net proceeds of approximately $42.1 million and $62.3 million, respectively, from these sales, and incurred approximately $0.7 million and $1.1 million in commissions payable to the Sales Agents.

Valuation Techniques

The Company has not changed its valuation techniques in measuring the fair value of any of its other financial assets and liabilities during the period. For details of the Company’s fair value measurement policies under the fair value hierarchy, refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements

The following table provides the assets and liabilities carried at fair value measured on a non-recurring basis as of December 31, 2022. Refer to "Note G - Goodwill and Intangible Assets", for a description of the valuation techniques used to determine fair value of the assets measured on a non-recurring basis in the table below. There were no assets or liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Note M — Income taxes

The Company estimates its annual effective tax rate each fiscal quarter and applies that estimated rate to its interim pre-tax earnings. In this regard, the Company reflects the full year’s estimated tax impact of certain unusual or infrequently occurring items and the effects of changes in tax laws or rates in the interim period in which they occur. The Company's parent, the Trust, is subject to entity-level U.S. federal, state and local corporate income taxes on the Company's earnings that flow through to the Trust.

The computation of the annual estimated effective tax rate for each interim period requires certain assumptions, estimates, and significant judgment, including with respect to the projected operating income for the year, projections of income earned and taxes incurred in various jurisdictions, permanent and temporary differences and the likelihood of recovering deferred tax assets. The accounting estimates used to compute the provision for income taxes may change as new events occur, as additional information is obtained, as our tax structure changes or as the tax laws change. Certain foreign operations are subject to foreign income taxation under existing provisions of the laws of those jurisdictions.

The reconciliation between the Federal Statutory Rate and the effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 is as follows:

	Six months ended June 30,
	2023		2022
United States Federal Statutory Rate	21.0	%	21.0	%
State income taxes (net of Federal benefits)	1.6		5.2
Foreign income taxes	4.6		3.0
Impact of subsidiary employee stock options	(1.8)		0.9
Utilization of tax credits	(2.9)		(4.4)
Non-recognition of various carryforwards at subsidiaries	13.1		(0.1)
United States tax on foreign income	(1.3)		—
Other	1.2		0.8
Effective income tax rate	35.5	%	26.4	%

Note N — Defined Benefit Plan

In connection with the acquisition of Arnold, the company has a defined benefit plan covering substantially all of Arnold’s employees at its Lupfig, Switzerland location. The benefits are based on years of service and the employees’ highest average compensation during the specific period.

The unfunded liability of $1.7 million is recognized in the consolidated balance sheet as a component of other non-current liabilities at June 30, 2023. Net periodic benefit cost consists of the following for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 (in thousands):

	Three months ended June 30,				Six months ended June 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022
Service cost	$	91	$	107	$	181	$	217
Interest cost	62		10		122		21
Expected return on plan assets	(55)		(18)		(109)		(37)
Amortization of unrecognized loss	(9)		(7)		(18)		(14)
Effect of curtailment	—		(28)		(13)		(31)
Net periodic benefit cost	$	89	$	64	$	163	$	156

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, per the terms of the pension agreement, Arnold contributed $0.2 million to the plan. For the remainder of 2023, the expected contribution to the plan will be approximately $0.2 million.

The plan assets are pooled with assets of other participating employers and are not separable; therefore, the fair values of the pension plan assets at June 30, 2023 were considered Level 3.

Note O - Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are involved in various claims and legal proceedings. While the ultimate resolution of these matters has yet to be determined, the Company does not believe that any unfavorable outcomes will have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Leases

The Company and its subsidiaries lease office and manufacturing facilities, computer equipment and software under various arrangements. Certain of the leases are subject to escalation clauses and renewal periods. The Company and its subsidiaries recognize lease expense, including predetermined fixed escalations, on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the lease including reasonably assured renewal periods from the time that the Company and its subsidiaries control the leased property. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet; we recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Certain of our subsidiaries have leases that contain both fixed rent costs and variable rent costs based on achievement of certain operating metrics. The variable lease expense was not a material component of our total lease expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The Company recognized $13.6 million and $25.9 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and $10.6 million and $21.0 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, in expense related to operating leases in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

36

The maturities of lease liabilities at June 30, 2023 are as follows (in thousands):

2023 (excluding six months ended June 30, 2023)	$	19,337
2024	40,287
2025	36,936
2026	33,561
2027	29,124
Thereafter	73,014
Total undiscounted lease payments	$	232,259
Less: Interest	53,113
Present value of lease liabilities	$	179,146

The calculated amount of the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are impacted by the length of the lease term and discount rate used to present value the minimum lease payments. The Company's lease agreements often include one or more options to renew at the company's discretion. In general, it is not reasonably certain that lease renewals will be exercised at lease commencement and therefore lease renewals are not included in the lease term. As the discount rate is rarely determinable, the Company utilizes the incremental borrowing rate of the subsidiary entering into the lease arrangement, on a collateralized basis, over a similar term as adjusted for any country specific risk.

The weighted average remaining lease terms and discount rates for all of our operating leases were as follows:

Lease Term and Discount Rate	June 30, 2023		June 30, 2022
Weighted-average remaining lease term (years)	6.31		5.98
Weighted-average discount rate	7.89	%	7.18	%

Supplemental balance sheet information related to leases was as follows (in thousands):

	Line Item in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet	June 30, 2023		December 31, 2022
Operating lease right-of-use assets	Other non-current assets	$	156,918	$	147,518
Current portion, operating lease liabilities	Other current liabilities	$	29,441	$	28,497
Operating lease liabilities	Other non-current liabilities	$	149,705	$	139,529

Supplemental cash flow information related to leases was as follows (in thousands):

	Six months ended June 30, 2023		Six months ended June 30, 2022
Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities:
Operating cash flows from operating leases	$	21,297	$	13,929
Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for lease obligations:
Operating leases	$	22,994	$	19,947

Note P — Related Party Transactions

Management Services Agreement

The LLC entered into the Management Services Agreement ("MSA") with CGM effective May 16, 2006, as amended. Our Chief Executive Officer is a partner of CGM. The MSA provides for, among other things, CGM to perform services for the LLC in exchange for a management fee paid quarterly and equal to 0.5% of the LLC's adjusted net assets, as defined in the MSA.

During 2022, CGM entered into a waiver of the MSA for the period through June 30, 2023 to receive a 1% annual management fee related to PrimaLoft, rather than the 2% called for under the MSA, which resulted in a lower management fee at March 31, and June 30, 2023 than would normally have been due. At March 31, 2022, CGM entered into a waiver to exclude cash balances held at the LLC from the calculation of the management fee.

Integration Services Agreements

PrimaLoft, which was acquired in July 2022, entered into an Integration Services Agreement ("ISA") with CGM whereby PrimaLoft paid CGM an integration services fee of $4.8 million quarterly over the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2023.

Lugano, which was acquired in September 2021, entered into an ISA with CGM whereby Lugano paid CGM an integration services fee of $2.3 million quarterly over a twelve month period as services were rendered, beginning in the quarter ended December 31, 2021.

Integration service fees are included in selling, general and administrative expense on the subsidiaries' statement of operations in the period in which they are incurred. Under the ISAs, CGM provides services for new platform acquisitions to, amongst other things, assist the management at the acquired entities in establishing a corporate governance program, implement compliance and reporting requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, and align the acquired entity's policies and procedures with our other subsidiaries.

The Company and its businesses have the following significant related party transactions

5.11

Related Party Vendor Purchases - 5.11 purchases inventory from a vendor who is a related party to 5.11 through one of the executive officers of 5.11 via the executive's 40% ownership interest in the vendor. 5.11 purchased approximately $0.4 million and $1.0 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively and $0.5 million and $0.8 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively in inventory from the vendor.

BOA

Related Party Vendor Purchases - A contract manufacturer used by BOA as the primary supplier of molded injection parts is a noncontrolling shareholder of BOA.

Ergobaby

Recapitalization - In February 2022, the Company completed a recapitalization of Ergobaby whereby the LLC entered into an amendment to the intercompany loan agreement with Ergobaby (the "Ergo Loan Agreement"). The Ergo Loan Agreement was amended to provide for additional loan borrowings of $61.5 million to fund a distribution to shareholders. The LLC owned 81.6% of the outstanding shares of Ergobaby on the date of the distribution and received $50.2 million. The remaining amount of the distribution was paid to minority shareholders.

Overview

Compass Diversified Holdings ("Holdings", or the "Trust") was incorporated in Delaware on November 18, 2005. Compass Group Diversified Holdings LLC (the "LLC") was also formed on November 18, 2005. Holdings and the LLC (collectively, the "Company") were formed to acquire and manage a group of small and middle-market businesses headquartered in North America. The LLC is a controlling owner of ten businesses, or operating segments, at June 30, 2023. The segments are as follows: 5.11 Acquisition Corp. ("5.11"), Boa Holdings Inc. ("BOA"), The Ergo Baby Carrier, Inc. ("Ergobaby"), Lugano Holdings, Inc. ("Lugano Diamonds" or "Lugano"), Marucci Sports, LLC ("Marucci" or "Marucci Sports"), PrimaLoft Technologies Holdings, Inc. ("PrimaLoft"), Velocity Outdoor, Inc. ("Velocity Outdoor" or "Velocity"), FFI Compass, Inc. ("Altor Solutions" or "Altor" (formerly "Foam Fabricators")), AMT Acquisition Corporation ("Arnold"), and The Sterno Group, LLC ("Sterno").

We acquired our existing businesses (segments) that we own at June 30, 2023 as follows:

		Ownership Interest - June 30, 2023
Business	Acquisition Date	Primary	Diluted
Ergobaby	September 16, 2010	81.6%	72.8%

We categorize our subsidiary businesses into two separate groups of businesses: (i) branded consumer businesses, and (ii) niche industrial businesses. Branded consumer businesses are characterized as those businesses that we believe capitalize on a valuable brand name in their respective market sector. We believe that our branded consumer businesses are leaders in their particular product category. Niche industrial businesses are characterized as those businesses that focus on manufacturing and selling particular products and industrial services within a specific market sector. We believe that our niche industrial businesses are leaders in their specific market sector. We recently announced the launch of our healthcare effort as our third grouping of companies. We believe healthcare has multiple attractive, high-growth segments with strong industry tailwinds, is an acyclical vertical that we expect will bring diversification and stability to the current group of companies, and has strong alignment with the Company’s existing subsidiary priorities.

While our subsidiary businesses have different growth opportunities and potential rates of growth, we actively manage each of our subsidiary businesses to increase the value of, and cash generated by, each business through various initiatives, including making selective capital investments to expand geographic reach, increase capacity or reduce manufacturing costs of our subsidiary businesses; improving and expanding existing sales and marketing programs; and assisting in the acquisition and integration of complementary businesses.

Significant Trends Impacting Our Subsidiary Businesses

Macroeconomic Trends

The macroeconomic environment continues to remain dynamic as global macroeconomic trends, including inflationary pressures and rising interest rates, are weakening consumer sentiment and negatively impacting consumer spending behavior. We expect changing market conditions and continued inflationary pressures to impact consumer spending, particularly for discretionary items purchased by low and middle income consumers. We continue to experience modest inflationary cost increases in our materials, labor and transportation costs, although transportation costs have normalized after reaching a peak in the first half of 2022. We took numerous actions during 2022 to build capacity as well as increase our supply chain related resources, including increasing inventory levels and investing in automated systems to increase production efficiency. We have begun seeing our lead-times for inventory begin to stabilize, which we expect will allow for more accurate forecasting in the second half of 2023. We are experiencing continued uncertainty in our business and the global economy due to inflation, changes in consumer spending patterns, and global supply chain disruptions. Accordingly, our liquidity and financial results could be impacted in ways that we are not able to predict today.

Business Outlook

The Company anticipates that the areas of focus for the second half of 2023, which are generally applicable to each of our businesses, include:

•Pursuing sales growth through a combination of new product development, increasing distribution, new customer acquisitions and international expansion;

•Raising prices, when appropriate, on our goods due to rising input costs to preserve operating margins;

•Taking market share, where possible, in each of our niche market leading companies, generally at the expense of less well capitalized competitors;

•Striving for excellence in supply chain management, manufacturing and technological capabilities;

•Continuing to pursue expense reduction and cost savings in lower margin business lines or in response to lower production volume;

•Continuing to grow through disciplined, strategic acquisitions and rigorous integration processes; and

•Driving free cash flow through increased net income and effective working capital management, enabling continued investment in our businesses.

Recent Events

Sale of Advanced Circuits

On January 10, 2023, the LLC, solely in its capacity as the representative of the holders of stock and options of Compass AC Holdings, Inc. (“Advanced Circuits”), a majority owned subsidiary of the LLC, entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger with APCT Inc. (“ACI Purchaser”), Circuit Merger Sub, Inc. (“ACI Merger Sub”) and Advanced Circuits, pursuant to which ACI Purchaser agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding securities of Advanced Circuits, the parent company of the operating entity, Advanced Circuits, Inc., through a merger of ACI Merger Sub with and into Advanced Circuits, with Advanced Circuits surviving the merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of ACI Purchaser (the “ACI Merger”). The ACI Merger was completed on February 14, 2023. The sale price of Advanced Circuits was based on an enterprise value of $220 million, subject to certain adjustments based on matters such as the working capital and cash and debt balances of Advanced Circuits at the time of the closing. After the allocation of the sales price to Advanced Circuits non-controlling equity holders and the payment of transaction expenses, the Company received approximately $170.9 million of total proceeds at closing of which $66.9 million related to the repayment of intercompany loans with the Company. We recorded a gain on sale of $98.0 million, net of an income tax provision of $6.8 million related to the sale of Advanced Circuits in the first quarter of 2023. We recorded additional gain on sale of $2.1 million in the second quarter of 2023 related to the working capital settlement, and adjusted the income tax provision to $4.6 million, reflecting the loss at the LLC during the first half of the year.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

"U.S. GAAP" or "GAAP" refer to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of historical or future performance, financial position or cash flow that excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that effectively exclude amounts, included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in our financial statements, and vice versa for measures that include amounts, or are subject to adjustments that effectively include amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure as calculated and presented.

See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for further discussion of our non-GAAP financial measures and related reconciliations.

Results of Operations

The following discussion reflects a comparison of the historical results of operations of our consolidated business for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, and components of the results of operations as well as those components presented as a percent of net revenues, for each of our subsidiary businesses on a stand-alone basis.

In the following results of operations, we provide (i) our actual Consolidated Results of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, which includes the historical results of operations of each of our businesses (operating segments) from the date of acquisition in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP" or "US GAAP), and (ii) comparative historical components of the results of operations for each of our businesses on a stand-alone basis for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, where all periods presented include relevant pro forma adjustments for pre-acquisition periods and explanations where applicable. For the acquisition of PrimaLoft in July 2022, the pro forma results of operations for the PrimaLoft business segment has been prepared as if we purchased this business on January 1, 2022. We believe this is the most meaningful comparison for the operating results of acquired business segments. The following results of operations at each of our businesses are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year.

All dollar amounts in the financial tables are presented in thousands. References in the financial tables to percentage changes that are not meaningful are denoted by "NM."

Three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to three months ended June 30, 2022

Net revenues

Consolidated net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2023 increased by approximately $8.6 million, or 1.7%, compared to the corresponding period in 2022. Our PrimaLoft business, which we acquired in July 2022, contributed $22.2 million to the increase. During the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to 2022, we also saw increases in net sales at 5.11 ($6.0 million increase), Marucci ($9.6 million increase), Lugano ($21.9 million increase), and Arnold ($1.4 million increase), offset by a decrease in net revenue at BOA ($21.3 million decrease), Velocity Outdoor ($16.0 million decrease), Altor Solutions ($5.3 million decrease) and Sterno ($9.6 million decrease). Refer to "Results of Operations - Business Segments" for a more detailed analysis of net revenues by subsidiary business segment.

We do not generate any revenues apart from those generated by our subsidiaries. We may generate interest income on the investment of available funds, but expect such earnings to be minimal. We make loans from the Company to our subsidiary businesses and also hold equity interests in those businesses. Cash flows coming to the Trust and the Company are the result of interest payments on those loans, amortization of those loans and additional principal payments on those loans. However, on a consolidated basis, these items will be eliminated.

Cost of revenues

On a consolidated basis, cost of revenues decreased approximately $16.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the corresponding period in 2022. We saw notable decreases in cost of revenues at BOA ($7.7 million decrease), Velocity ($11.0 million decrease), Altor ($11.0 million decrease), and Sterno ($9.0 million decrease) that corresponded to the decrease in revenue noted above. These decreases were offset by increases in cost of revenue at several of our businesses. Our PrimaLoft business contributed $8.2 million in cost of revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. We also saw increases in cost of revenues at 5.11 ($3.2 million increase), Lugano ($7.8 million increase) and Marucci ($2.0 million increase) that correspond to the revenue increases noted above. Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues was approximately 45.2% in the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to 41.1% in the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of net sales in the quarter ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2022 is primarily attributable to the implementation of price increases at most of our subsidiary businesses in response to rising costs, and the mix of products with the increase in net revenue at our higher margin businesses. Refer to "Results of Operations - Business Segments" for a more detailed analysis of gross profit by subsidiary business segment.

Selling, general and administrative expense

Consolidated selling, general and administrative expense increased approximately $22.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the corresponding period in 2022. A portion of the increase in selling general and administrative expense in the second quarter of 2023 is due to our PrimaLoft acquisition in July 2022 ($5.7 million of the increase, of which $1.2 million was attributable to integration services fees). We also saw increases in selling, general and administrative expenses at several of our consumer brands due to increased investment in marketing and headcount, particularly 5.11 ($4.5 million of the increase), Lugano ($6.6 million of the increase) and Marucci ($2.8 million). Refer to "Results of Operations - Business Segments" for a more detailed analysis of selling, general and administrative expense by subsidiary business segment. At the corporate level, general and administrative expense was $4.1 million in the second quarter of 2023 and $3.4 million in the second quarter of 2022, an increase of $0.7 million primarily due to an increase in professional fees.

Fees to manager

Pursuant to the Management Services Agreement ("MSA"), we pay CGM a quarterly management fee equal to 0.5% (2.0% annually) of our consolidated adjusted net assets. We accrue for the management fee on a quarterly basis. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, we incurred approximately $16.9 million in management fees as compared to $14.9 million in fees in the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in management fees is primarily attributable to our acquisition of PrimaLoft in July 2022. CGM entered into a waiver of the MSA for a period through June 30, 2023 to receive a 1% annual management fee related to PrimaLoft, rather than the 2% called for under the MSA, which resulted in a lower management fee paid in the second quarter of 2023 than would have normally been due.

Amortization expense

Amortization expense for the three months ended June 30, 2023 increased $5.8 million as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 as a result of the amortization expense associated with the intangibles that were recognized in conjunction with the purchase price allocation for PrimaLoft, which was acquired in July 2022.

Interest expense

We recorded interest expense totaling $26.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $17.5 million for the comparable period in 2022, an increase of $9.1 million. The increase in interest expense in the current quarter reflects higher amounts outstanding on our revolving credit facility in the current year, the interest expense associated with our 2022 Term Loan that we entered into in July 2022 in connection with our acquisition of PrimaLoft, and the higher interest rate environment in the current quarter versus the comparable quarter in the prior year.

Other income (expense)

For the quarter ended June 30, 2023, we recorded $0.1 million in other expense as compared to $0.7 million in other income in the quarter ended June 30, 2022, a decrease in other expense of $0.8 million. Other income (expense) typically reflects the movement in foreign currency at our subsidiary businesses with international operations, gains or (losses) realized on the sale of property, plant and equipment, and expenses incurred or income earned that are not considered a part of our operations.

Income taxes

We had an income tax provision of $4.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to an income tax provision of $6.1 million during the same period in 2022, a decrease of $1.7 million. Our income before income taxes for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 decreased by approximately $15.3 million as compared to the prior year quarter. During the second quarter of 2023, we had an effective income tax rate of 35.5% as compared to an effective income tax rate of 26.4% for the second quarter of 2022. During the second quarter of 2023, the effective income tax rate differed from the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to foreign income taxes and limitations on the use of net operating loss carryforwards and the deduction of interest expense at our subsidiaries, while in the second quarter of 2022, the difference with the U.S. statutory rate was primarily attributable to the effect of state and local income taxes.

Net revenues

Consolidated net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased by approximately $40.3 million, or 3.9%, compared to the corresponding period in 2022. Our PrimaLoft business, which we acquired in July 2022, contributed $46.7 million to the increase. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to 2022, we also saw significant increases in net sales at 5.11 ($26.4 million increase), Marucci ($15.8 million increase), Lugano ($38.8 million increase), Ergobaby ($1.9 million increase) and Arnold ($3.3 million increase), partially offset by a decrease in net revenue at BOA ($40.1 million decrease), Velocity Outdoor ($33.4 million decrease), Altor Solutions ($7.6 million decrease) and Sterno ($11.5 million decrease). Refer to "Results of Operations - Business Segments" for a more detailed analysis of net revenues by subsidiary business segment.

Cost of revenues

On a consolidated basis, cost of revenues decreased approximately $21.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the corresponding period in 2022. We saw notable decreases in cost of revenues at BOA ($13.6 million decrease), Velocity ($23.1 million decrease), Altor ($15.9 million decrease), and Sterno ($12.9 million decrease) that corresponded to the decrease in revenue noted above. Our Marucci business also saw a decrease in cost of sales of $1.2 million, despite an increase in revenue in the current period versus the comparable period in 2022. In the first half of 2022, Marucci had increased air freight costs as they worked to offset supply chain shortages. These decreases were offset by increases in cost of revenue at several of our businesses. Our PrimaLoft business contributed $17.1 million in cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2023. We also saw increases in cost of revenues at 5.11 ($12.9 million increase), and Lugano ($13.9 million increase) that correspond to the revenue increases noted above. Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues was approximately 44.5% in the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to 40.2% in the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of net sales in the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 is primarily attributable to the implementation of price increases at most of our subsidiary businesses in response to rising costs, and the mix of products sold, with increases in net revenue at our higher margin businesses. Refer to "Results of Operations - Business Segments" for a more detailed analysis of gross profit by subsidiary business segment.

Selling, general and administrative expense

Consolidated selling, general and administrative expense increased approximately $48.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to the corresponding period in 2022. A portion of the increase in selling general and administrative expense in the six months ended June 30, 2023 is due to our PrimaLoft acquisition in July 2022 ($10.8 million of the increase, of which $2.4 million was attributable to integration services fees). We also saw increases in selling, general and administrative expenses at several of our consumer brands due to increased investment in marketing and headcount, particularly 5.11 ($13.5 million of the increase), Lugano ($11.1 million of the increase) and Marucci ($5.5 million). Refer to "Results of Operations - Business Segments" for a more detailed analysis of selling, general and administrative expense by subsidiary business segment. At the corporate level, general and administrative expense was $8.9 million in the first half of 2023 and $7.0 million in the first half of 2022, an increase of $1.9 million due to the timing of investor relation events and an increase in professional fees.

Fees to manager

Pursuant to the Management Services Agreement ("MSA"), we pay CGM a quarterly management fee equal to 0.5% (2.0% annually) of our consolidated adjusted net assets. We accrue for the management fee on a quarterly basis. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, we incurred approximately $33.3 million in management fees as compared to $29.3 million in fees in the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in management fees is primarily attributable to our acquisition of PrimaLoft in July 2022. CGM entered into a waiver of the MSA for a period through June 30, 2023 to receive a 1% annual management fee related to PrimaLoft, rather than the 2% called for under the MSA, which resulted in a lower management fee paid in the first half of 2023 than would have normally been due.

Amortization expense

Amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased $11.0 million as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022 as a result of the amortization expense associated with the intangibles that were recognized in conjunction with the purchase price allocation for PrimaLoft, which was acquired in July 2022.

Interest expense

We recorded interest expense totaling $52.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $34.9 million for the comparable period in 2022, an increase of $17.9 million. The increase in interest expense in the current period reflects higher amounts outstanding on our revolving credit facility in the current year, the interest expense associated with our 2022 Term Loan that we entered into in July 2022 in connection with our acquisition of PrimaLoft, and the higher interest rate environment in the current year versus the comparable period in the prior year.

Other income (expense)

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded $1.0 million in other income as compared to $2.8 million in other income in the six months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease in other income of $1.7 million. Other income (expense) typically reflects the movement in foreign currency at our subsidiary businesses with international operations, gains or (losses) realized on the sale of property, plant and equipment, and expenses incurred or income earned that are not considered a part of our operations. In the prior year, we recognized a non-recurring settlement of $1.8 million at Marucci, which contributed to the decrease in the current period.

Income taxes

We had an income tax provision of $14.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to an income tax provision of $16.1 million during the same period in 2022, a decrease of $1.8 million. Our income before income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased by approximately $20.8 million as compared to the prior year six months ended.

During the first half of 2023, the effective income tax rate differed from the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to foreign income taxes and limitations on the use of net operating loss carryforwards and interest expense deductions at our subsidiaries, while in the first half of 2022, the difference with the U.S. statutory rate was primarily attributable to the effect of state and local income taxes.

Net sales

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were $126.0 million as compared to net sales of $120.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $6.0 million, or 5.0%. This increase was driven by a $9.0 million increase in direct-to-consumer sales largely due to strong demand in digital sales, in addition to sales from thirty new retail store openings since June 2022 (bringing the total store count to 121 as of June 30, 2023), as well as a $1.6 million increase in international sales resulting from strong demand and inventory availability. These increases in sales were offset by a decrease of $5.5 million in domestic wholesale sales due to a greater fulfillment of backorders in the prior comparable period.

Gross profit

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 53.9% in the three months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to 54.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was unfavorably impacted by increased product costs and promotional activity to drive sales, which was offset favorably by price increases, as well as customer mix and product mix.

Selling, general and administrative expense

Selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $54.9 million, or 43.5% of net sales compared to $50.4 million, or 41.9% of net sales for the comparable period in 2022.

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were $37.3 million, an increase of $9.6 million as compared to net sales of $27.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in net sales was due to increased customer demand, particularly at big-box retailers and through direct-to-consumer channels, and market share growth in Marucci's key product lines, including aluminum and wood bats, and batting gloves. Marucci completed an add-on acquisition in early April, Baum Bat, a designer and manufacturer of composite bats, which allowed further penetration of the wood bat market during the quarter.

Gross profit

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was 54.3%, as compared to gross profit as a percentage of sales of 45.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of net sales during the quarter ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2022, was primarily due to higher spending on air-freight in the prior year quarter as supply chain issues led to increased transportation costs, and higher direct to consumer sales during the current quarter, which carry higher margins.

The increase in selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2023 partially correlates to the increase in net sales, with increases in credit card expenses, royalties, commissions, business development fees, and other variable expenses. Marucci also incurred additional promotional and marketing expenses in the current quarter due to seasonal programs at several retail customers, and increased operational expenses to support its growth.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We generate cash primarily from the operations of our subsidiaries, and we have the ability to borrow under our 2022 Credit Facility to fund our operating, investing and financing activities. In January 2023, the Company's Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Company to repurchase, through December 31, 2023, up to $50 million of its outstanding common shares. In 2021, we filed a prospectus supplement pursuant to which we may, but we have no obligation to, issue and sell up to $500 million of the common shares of the Trust in amounts and at times to be determined by us. Actual sales will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by us from time to time, including, market conditions, the trading price of Trust common shares and determinations by us regarding appropriate sources of funding.

Our liquidity requirements primarily relate to our debt service requirements, payments of our common and preferred share distributions, management fees paid to our Manager, working capital needs and purchase commitments at our subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2023, we had $1,000.0 million of indebtedness associated with our 5.250% 2029 Notes, $300 million of indebtedness associated with our 5.000% 2032 Notes, $390.0 million outstanding on our 2022 Term Loan, and $92.0 million outstanding on our 2022 Revolving Credit Facility. Only our 2022 Term Loan has required principal payments. Long-term debt liquidity requirements consist of the payment in full of our Notes upon their respective maturity dates, amounts outstanding under our 2022 Revolving Credit Facility upon its maturity date, and principal payments under our 2022 Term Loan. The 2022 Term Loan requires quarterly payments ranging from $2.5 million to $7.5 million, commencing September 30, 2022, with a final payment of all remaining principal and interest due on July 12, 2027, which is the 2022 Term Loan’s maturity date. At June 30, 2023, approximately 27% of our outstanding debt was subject to interest rate changes.

At June 30, 2023, we had approximately $67.4 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand, an increase of $9.5 million as compared to the year ended December 31, 2022. The majority of our cash is in non-interest bearing checking accounts or invested in short-term money market accounts and is maintained in accordance with the Company’s investment policy, which identifies allowable investments and specifies credit quality standards. Our availability under our 2022 Revolving Credit Facility at June 30, 2023 was $505.8 million. The change in cash and cash equivalents for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 is as follows:

Operating Activities:

	Six months ended
(in thousands)	June 30, 2023		June 30, 2022
Cash provided by (used in) operating activities	$	37,239	$	(35,337)

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, cash flows provided by operating activities totaled approximately $37.2 million, which represents a $72.6 million decrease in cash use compared to cash used in operating activities of $35.3 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2022. Cash used in operating activities for working capital for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $65.2 million, as compared to cash used in operating activities for working capital of $159.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. We typically have a higher usage of cash for working capital in the first half of the year as most of our subsidiaries will build up inventories after the fourth quarter. In the fourth quarter of 2021 and continuing into 2022, several of our subsidiary businesses increased inventory levels to combat supply chain issues given longer lead times leading to higher use of working capital for inventory in the prior year. We believe that the use of working capital in the first half of 2023 reflects a more normalized use of cash by our businesses as supply chains have normalized over the past year. The increase in cash used in operating activities for working capital in the first half of 2022 also reflects the acquisition of Lugano in

59

the third quarter of the prior year. Lugano has used significant cash to build inventory to support its sales growth strategy.

Investing Activities:

	Six months ended
(in thousands)	June 30, 2023		June 30, 2022
Cash provided by (used in) investing activities	$	117,829	$	(22,238)

Cash flows provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 totaled $117.8 million, compared to cash used in investing activities of $22.2 million in the same period of 2022. In the current year, investing activities reflects the sale of Advanced Circuits and the proceeds received related to the sale, and an add-on acquisition at Marucci in the second quarter of 2022. Capital expenditures spend increased $7.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022, with $31.5 million in capital expenditures in 2023 and $24.4 million in capital expenditures in 2022. The increase in capital expenditures is primarily to support the retail store growth at both 5.11 and Lugano. We expect capital expenditures for the full year of 2023 to be between approximately $60 million to $70 million.

Financing Activities:

	Six months ended
(in thousands)	June 30, 2023		June 30, 2022
Cash provided by (used in) financing activities	$	(149,619)	$	3,597

Cash flows used in financing activities totaled approximately $149.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to cash flows provided by financing activities of $3.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022. Financing activities in the current year reflects $5.9 million in purchases under our share repurchase program, while financing activities in the first six months of 2022 reflects $62.2 million of Trust common shares issued under our at-the market share offering program. In the current year, we paid back $68.0 million, net, against our 2022 Credit Facility. Financing activities in both periods reflect the payment of our common and preferred share distributions, and current period financing cash flows reflect the payment of the profit allocation from the sale of Advanced Circuits to the Allocation Interest Holders.

Intercompany Debt

A component of our acquisition financing strategy that we utilize in acquiring the subsidiary businesses we own and manage is to provide both equity capital and debt capital, raised at the parent level through our existing credit facility. Our strategy of providing intercompany debt financing within the capital structure of our subsidiaries allows us the ability to distribute cash to the parent company through monthly interest payments and amortization of the principal on these intercompany loans. Each loan to our subsidiary businesses has a scheduled maturity and each subsidiary business is entitled to repay all or a portion of the principal amount of the outstanding loans, without penalty, prior to maturity. Certain of our subsidiaries have paid down their respective intercompany debt balances through the cash flow generated by these subsidiaries and we have recapitalized, and expect to continue to recapitalize, these subsidiaries in the normal course of our business. The recapitalization process involves funding the intercompany debt using either cash on hand at the parent or our applicable credit facility, and serves the purpose of optimizing the capital structure at our subsidiaries and providing the noncontrolling shareholders with a distribution on their ownership interest in a cash flow positive business.

In February 2022, we completed a recapitalization at Ergobaby whereby the LLC entered into an amendment to the intercompany loan agreement with Ergobaby (the "Ergobaby Loan Agreement"). The Ergobaby Loan Agreement was amended to provide for additional term loan borrowings of $61.5 million to fund a distribution to shareholders. The LLC owned 81.6% of the outstanding shares of Ergobaby on the date of the distribution and received $50.2 million. The remaining amount of the distribution was paid to minority shareholders.

In the second quarter of 2023, we amended the Marucci intercompany credit agreement to increase the borrowing availability under their credit agreement to allow for the financing of an add-on acquisition, and we amended the Velocity intercompany credit agreement to extend the term of the facility and to increase the borrowing availability under the facility. In the second quarter of 2023 and the fourth quarter of 2022, we amended the Lugano intercompany credit agreement to increase the borrowing availability under their credit agreement to allow Lugano

60

to continue to expand their operations. In the first quarter of 2022, we amended the 5.11 and Lugano intercompany credit agreements. The 5.11 amendment increased the capital expenditure allowable under the credit agreement to account for additional growth capital expenditure opportunities primarily related to retail expansion, and amended the financial covenants to reflect the increased allowable expenditure. The Lugano amendment increased the amount available under the revolving credit facility to permit additional investment in inventory, and amended the financial covenants to reflect the increase in the revolving credit facility. We amended the Lugano intercompany credit agreement again in the second quarter of 2022 to increase the amount in available under the revolving credit facility to permit additional investment in inventory, and amended the financial covenants to reflect the increase in the revolving credit facility. We amended the Velocity intercompany credit agreement in the third quarter of 2022 to increase the amount of the Velocity term loan to allow for the financing of an add-on acquisition.

All of our subsidiaries were in compliance with the financial covenants included within their intercompany credit arrangements at June 30, 2023.

All intercompany loans eliminate in consolidation and are not reflected in the consolidated balance sheet. As of June 30, 2023, we had the following outstanding loans due from each of our subsidiary businesses (in thousands):

Subsidiary	Intercompany loan
5.11	$	212,435
BOA	62,420
Ergobaby	85,625

Sterno	144,736
Total intercompany debt	$	1,349,960
Corporate and eliminations	(1,349,960)
Total	$	—

Our primary source of cash is from the receipt of interest and principal on the outstanding loans to our subsidiaries. Accordingly, we are dependent upon the earnings of and cash flow from these businesses, which are available for (i) operating expenses; (ii) payment of principal and interest under our applicable credit facility and interest on our Senior Notes; (iii) payments to CGM due pursuant to the MSA and the LLC Agreement; (iv) cash distributions to our shareholders; and (v) investments in future acquisitions. Payments made under (iii) above are required to be paid before distributions to shareholders and may be significant and exceed the funds held by us, which may require us to dispose of assets or incur debt to fund such expenditures.

Financing Arrangements

2022 Credit Facility

On July 12, 2022, we entered into the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "2022 Credit Facility") to amend and restate the 2021 Credit Facility. The 2022 Credit Facility provides for revolving loans, swing line loans and letters of credit up to a maximum aggregate amount of $600 million (the "2022 Revolving Credit Facility") and also permits the LLC, prior to the applicable maturity date, to increase the revolving loan commitment and/or obtain term loans in an aggregate amount of up to $250 million, subject to certain restrictions and conditions. All amounts outstanding under the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility will become due on July 12, 2027, which is the maturity date of loans advanced under the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility. The 2022 Credit Facility also provides for a $400 million term loan (the “2022 Term Loan”). The 2022 Term Loan requires quarterly payments ranging from $2.5 million to $7.5 million, commencing September 30, 2022, with a final payment of all remaining principal and interest due on July 12, 2027, which is the 2022 Term Loan’s maturity date.

61

We had $505.8 million in net availability under the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility at June 30, 2023. The outstanding borrowings under the 2022 Revolving Credit Facility include $2.2 million of outstanding letters of credit at June 30, 2023, which are not reflected on our balance sheet.

2021 Credit Facility

On March 23, 2021, we entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to amend and restate the 2018 Credit Facility. The 2021 Credit Facility provided for revolving loans, swing line loans and letters of credit up to a maximum aggregate amount of $600 million and also permits the LLC, prior to the applicable maturity date, to increase the revolving loan commitment and/or obtain term loans in an aggregate amount of up to $250 million, subject to certain restrictions and conditions. The LLC repaid the outstanding amounts under the 2021 Credit Facility in the third quarter of 2022 in connection with entering into the 2022 Credit Facility.

Senior Notes

2032 Notes

On November 17, 2021, we consummated the issuance and sale of $300 million aggregate principal amount of our 5.000% Senior Notes due 2032 (the "2032 Notes") offered pursuant to a private offering to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act, and to non-U.S. persons under Regulation S under the Securities Act. The 2032 Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of November 17, 2021 (the “2032 Notes Indenture”), between the LLC and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The 2032 Notes bear interest at the rate of 5.000% per annum and will mature on January 15, 2032. Interest on the 2032 Notes is payable in cash on July 15th and January 15th of each year.

The proceeds from the sale of the 2032 Notes were used to repay debt outstanding under the 2021 Credit Facility.

2029 Notes

On March 23, 2021, we consummated the issuance and sale of $1,000 million aggregate principal amount of our 5.250% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”) offered pursuant to a private offering to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act, and to non-U.S. persons under Regulation S under the Securities Act. The 2029 Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of March 23, 2021 (the “2029 Notes Indenture”), between the LLC and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

GAAP or U.S. GAAP refer to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. From time to time we may publicly disclose certain "non-GAAP" financial measures in the course of our investor presentations, earnings releases, earnings conference calls or other venues. A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of historical or future performance, financial position or cash flow that excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that effectively exclude amounts, included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in our financial statements, and vice versa for measures that include amounts, or are subject to adjustments that effectively include amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure as calculated and presented.

Non-GAAP financial measures are provided as additional information to investors in order to provide them with an alternative method for assessing our financial condition and operating results. These measures are not intended to replace the presentation of financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and may be different from or otherwise inconsistent with non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures supplements other metrics we use to internally evaluate our subsidiary businesses and facilitate the comparison of past and present operations.

The tables below reconcile the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures to Earnings before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA"), Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted Earnings.

Reconciliation of Net income (loss) from continuing operations to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Net income (loss) to Adjusted Earnings

EBITDA – EBITDA is calculated as net income (loss) from continuing operations before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), loss on debt extinguishment, depreciation expense and amortization expense. Amortization expenses consist of amortization of intangibles and debt charges, including debt issuance costs, discounts, etc.

Adjusted EBITDA – Adjusted EBITDA is calculated utilizing the same calculation as described above in arriving at EBITDA further adjusted by: (i) noncontrolling stockholder compensation, which generally consists of non-cash

63

stock option expense; (ii) successful acquisition costs, which consist of transaction costs (legal, accounting, due diligence, etc.) incurred in connection with the successful acquisition of a business expensed during the period in compliance with ASC 805; (iii) integration service fees, which reflect fees paid by newly acquired companies to the Manager for integration services performed during the first year of ownership; and (iv) items of other income or expense that are material to a subsidiary and non-recurring in nature.

Adjusted Earnings - Adjusted earnings is calculated as net income (loss) adjusted to include the cost of the distributions to preferred shareholders, and adjusted to exclude the impact of certain costs, expenses, gains and losses and other specified items the exclusion of which management believes provides insight regarding our ongoing operating performance. Depending on the period presented, these adjusted measures exclude the impact of certain of the following items: gains (losses) and income (loss) from discontinued operations, income (loss) from noncontrolling interest, amortization expense, subsidiary stock compensation expense, acquisition-related expenses and items of other income or expense that may be material to a subsidiary and non-recurring in nature.

We believe that EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Earnings provide useful information to investors and reflect important financial measures that are used by management in the monthly analysis of our operating results and in preparation of our annual budgets. We believe that investors’ understanding of our performance is enhanced by disclosing these performance measures as this presentation allows investors to view the performance of our businesses in a manner similar to the methods used by us and the management of our subsidiary businesses, provides additional insight into our operating results and provides a measure for evaluating targeted businesses for acquisition.

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Earnings provide useful information to investors and reflects important financial measures as they exclude the effects of items which reflect the impact of long-term investment decisions, rather than the performance of near-term operations. When compared to net income (loss) and net income (loss) from continuing operations, Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EBITDA, respectively, are each limited in that they do not reflect the periodic costs of certain capital assets used in generating revenues of our subsidiary businesses or the non-cash charges associated with impairments, as well as certain cash charges. The presentation of Adjusted EBITDA allows investors to view the performance of our businesses in a manner similar to the methods used by us and the management of our subsidiaries, provides additional insight into our operating results and provides a measure for evaluating targeted businesses for acquisition. The presentation of Adjusted Earnings provides insight into our operating results and provides a measure for evaluating earnings from continuing operations available to common shareholders. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Earnings are not meant to be a substitute for GAAP, and may be different from or otherwise inconsistent with non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

The following tables reconcile EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) from continuing operations, which we consider to be the most comparable GAAP financial measure (in thousands):

Seasonality

Earnings of certain of our operating segments are seasonal in nature due to various recurring events, holidays and seasonal weather patterns, as well as the timing of our acquisitions during a given year. Historically, the third and fourth quarter have produced the highest net sales in our fiscal year, however, due to various acquisitions since 2020, there is generally less seasonality in our net sales on a consolidated basis than there has been historically.

Related Party Transactions

Management Services Agreement

We entered into the MSA with CGM effective May 16, 2006. The MSA provides for, among other things, CGM to perform services for the LLC in exchange for a management fee paid quarterly and equal to 0.5% of the Company's adjusted net assets, as defined in the MSA.

During 2022, CGM entered into a waiver of the MSA for the period through June 30, 2023 to receive a 1% annual management fee related to PrimaLoft, rather than the 2% called for under the MSA, which resulted in a lower management fee at March 31, and June 30, 2023 than would normally have been due. At June 30, 2022 and March

67

31, 2022, CGM entered into a waiver to exclude cash balances held at the LLC from the calculation of the management fee.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company incurred the following management fees to CGM, by entity:

Integration Services Agreements

PrimaLoft, which was acquired in July 2022, entered into an Integration Services Agreement ("ISA") with CGM whereby PrimaLoft paid CGM an integration services fee of $4.8 million quarterly over a twelve-month period ended June 30, 2023. Lugano, which was acquired in September 2021, entered into an ISA with CGM whereby Lugano paid CGM an integration services fee of $2.3 million quarterly over a twelve-month period ended September 30, 2022. Under the ISAs, CGM provides services for new platform acquisitions to, amongst other things, assist the management at the acquired entities in establishing a corporate governance program, implement compliance and reporting requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, and align the acquired entity's policies and procedures with our other subsidiaries. Integration services fees are recorded as selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statement of operations.

Allocation Interests

The Allocation Interests represent the original equity interest in the Company. The holders of the Allocation Interests (“Holders”), through Sostratus LLC, are entitled to receive distributions pursuant to a profit allocation formula upon the occurrence of certain events. The distributions of the profit allocation are paid upon the occurrence of the sale of a material amount of capital stock or assets of one of the Company’s businesses (“Sale Event”) or, at the option of the Holders, at each five year anniversary date of the acquisition of one of the Company’s businesses (“Holding Event”). The Company records distributions of the profit allocation to the Holders upon occurrence of a Sale Event or Holding Event as dividends declared on Allocation Interests to stockholders’ equity when they are approved by the Company’s board of directors. The sale of Advanced Circuits in February 2023 represented a Sale Event and the Company's board of director's approved a distribution of $24.4 million in April 2023, subsequent to the end of the first quarter. In addition, the Company's board of directors approved a distribution of $2.1 million related to various sale proceeds received related to previous Sale Events. These distributions were paid to the Holders of the Allocation Interests in April 2023.

5.11

Related Party Vendor Purchases - 5.11 purchases inventory from a vendor who is a related party to 5.11 through one of the executive officers of 5.11 via the executive's 40% ownership interest in the vendor. 5.11 purchased approximately $0.4 million and $1.0 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively and $0.5 million and $0.8 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively in inventory from the vendor.

68

BOA

Related Party Vendor Purchases - A contract manufacturer used by BOA as the primary supplier of molded injection parts is a noncontrolling shareholder of BOA. BOA purchased approximately $10.7 million and $20.4 million from this supplier during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively and $15.9 million and $31.1 million during the three and six months ended and June 30, 2022, respectively.

Ergobaby

Recapitalization - In February 2022, the Company completed a recapitalization of Ergobaby whereby the LLC entered into an amendment to the intercompany loan agreement with Ergobaby (the "Ergo Loan Agreement"). The Ergo Loan Agreement was amended to provide for additional loan borrowings of $61.5 million to fund a distribution to shareholders. The LLC owned 81.6% of the outstanding shares of Ergobaby on the date of the distribution and received $50.2 million. The remaining amount of the distribution was paid to minority shareholders.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no special purpose entities or off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to adopt accounting policies and make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates under different assumptions and judgments and uncertainties, and potentially could result in materially different results under different conditions. These critical accounting policies and estimates are reviewed periodically by our independent auditors and the audit committee of our board of directors.

Except as set forth below, our critical accounting estimates have not changed materially from those disclosed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC on March 1, 2023.

Goodwill and Indefinite-lived Intangible Asset Impairment Testing

Goodwill represents the excess amount of the purchase price over the fair value of the assets acquired. Our goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets are tested for impairment on an annual basis as of March 31st, and if current events or circumstances require, on an interim basis. Goodwill is allocated to various reporting units, which are generally an operating segment. Each of our subsidiary businesses represents a reporting unit.

We use a qualitative approach to test goodwill for impairment by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is greater than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the goodwill impairment testing. The qualitative factors we consider include, in part, the general macroeconomic environment, industry and market specific conditions for each reporting unit, financial performance including actual versus planned results and results of relevant prior periods, operating costs and cost impacts, as well as issues or events specific to the reporting unit. If qualitative factors are not sufficient to determine that the fair value of a reporting unit is more likely than not to exceed its carrying value, we will perform a quantitative test of the reporting unit whereby we estimate the fair value of the reporting unit using an income approach or market approach, or a weighting of the two methods. Under the income approach, we estimate the fair value of our reporting unit based on the present value of future cash flows. Cash flow projections are based on management's estimate of revenue growth rates and operating margins and take into consideration industry and market conditions as well as company specific economic factors. The discount rate used is based on the weighted average cost of capital adjusted for the relevant risk associated with the business and the uncertainty associated with the reporting unit's ability to execute on the projected cash flows. Under the market approach, we estimate fair value based on market multiples of revenue and earnings derived from comparable public companies with operating characteristics that are similar to the reporting unit. When market comparables are not meaningful or available, we estimate the fair value of the reporting unit using only the income approach. The valuation approaches are subject to key judgments and assumptions that are sensitive to change such as judgments and assumptions about appropriate sales growth rates, operating margins, weighted average cost of capital, and comparable company market multiples. When developing these key judgments and assumptions, we consider economic, operational and market conditions that could impact the fair value of the reporting unit. Estimates are inherently uncertain and represent only management’s reasonable expectations regarding future developments. These

69

estimates and the judgments and assumptions upon which the estimates are based will most likely differ from actual future results.

2023 Annual Impairment Testing - For our annual impairment testing at March 31, 2023, we performed a qualitative assessment of our reporting units. The results of the qualitative analysis indicated that it was more-likely-than-not that the fair value of each of our reporting units except Velocity exceeded their carrying value. Based on our analysis, we determined that the Velocity operating segment required quantitative testing because we could not conclude that the fair value of this reporting unit significantly exceeded the carrying value based on qualitative factors alone.

We performed the quantitative tests of Velocity using an income approach to determine the fair value of the reporting unit. In developing the prospective financial information used in the income approach, we considered recent market conditions, taking into consideration the uncertainty associated with the current economic environment. The prospective financial information considers reporting unit specific facts and circumstances and is our best estimate of operational results and cash flows for the Velocity reporting unit as of the date of our impairment testing. The discount rate used in the income approach was 15.0%, and the results of the quantitative impairment testing indicated that the fair value of the Velocity reporting unit exceeded the carrying value by approximately 21%. The prospective financial information that is used to determine the fair values of the Velocity reporting unit requires us to make assumptions regarding future operational results including revenue growth rates and gross margins. If we do not achieve the forecasted revenue growth rates and gross margins, the results of the quantitative testing could change, potentially leading to additional testing and impairment at the reporting unit that was tested quantitatively.

2022 Interim goodwill and indefinite lived intangible asset impairment testing - As a result of operating results below forecasts in the current period and expectations that macroeconomic conditions and decreases in consumer discretionary spending in the upcoming year will impact 2023 operating results, we determined that a triggering event had occurred at Ergobaby in the fourth quarter of 2022 and performed an interim impairment test of the Ergobaby goodwill and indefinite-lived tradename as of December 31, 2022. The Company used an income approach for the impairment test, whereby the Company estimated the fair value of the reporting unit based on the present value of expected future cash flows, including terminal value, and utilized a discount rate of 16.0%. The prospective financial information considers reporting unit specific facts and circumstances and was our best estimate of operational results and cash flows for Ergobaby as of the date of our impairment testing. The results of the quantitative impairment testing indicated that the fair value of the Ergobaby reporting unit did not exceed the carrying value. We recorded goodwill impairment expense of $20.6 million at December 31, 2022. For the indefinite lived tradename, the results of the quantitative testing indicated that the fair value exceeded the carrying value.

2022 Annual Impairment Testing - For our annual impairment testing at March 31, 2022, we performed a qualitative assessment of our reporting units. The results of the qualitative analysis indicated that it was more-likely-than-not that the fair value of each of our reporting units exceeded their carrying value.

Indefinite-lived intangible assets

We use a qualitative approach to test indefinite lived intangible assets for impairment by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform quantitative impairment testing. Our indefinite-lived intangible assets consist of trade names with a carrying value of approximately $57.0 million. The results of the qualitative analysis of our reporting unit's indefinite-lived intangible assets, which we completed as of March 31, 2023, indicated that the fair value of the indefinite lived intangible assets exceeded their carrying value.
