In May 2023, the Company received a Notice of Investigations and Interim Measures stating that the U.S. Customs and Border Protection ("CBP") had initiated a formal investigation to determine whether the Company had evaded the anti-dumping and countervailing duty orders on lightweight thermal paper from China by transshipping the merchandise through Taiwan. The period of investigation was from January 2022 through the pendency of the investigation. On February 5, 2024, CBP issued its Notice of Determination concluding that the manufacturing procedures performed by the manufacturer in Taiwan, which the Company imported certain thermal paper products from, did not constitute substantial transformation. On March 19, 2024, the Company submitted a request for an administrative review of the initial determination issued by CBP. On June 11, 2024, CBP completed the administrative review and upheld its initial conclusion. In February 2025, the Company started to receive bills related to certain of its thermal paper shipments. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company submitted protests of certain bills received with CBP, and received its determination on all submitted protests as of April 3, 2026. The Company made total payments of $1,909,000 related to certain shipments under the investigation for the year ended December 31, 2025 and $188,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026. Payments on bills received are currently due as all submitted protests are resolved. However, the Company is also evaluating other appeal options. The Company maintains a liability reserve, representing the total estimated probable loss from the investigation plus accrued interest, of $1,291,000 and $1,720,000 as of June 30, 2026 and
December 31, 2025, respectively. The amount of the final payments could vary significantly from the estimated liability reserve.

On February 20, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court held that certain tariffs previously imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act ("IEEPA") were unconstitutional. The case was remanded to the U.S. Court of International Trade for further instructions regarding the refund of all IEEPA tariffs paid by importers of record. The Company has completed the process of reviewing its import data, and determined that it has paid a total of $25,982,000 of IEEPA tariffs during the year ended December 31, 2025 and the first two months of 2026. In April 2026, the Company submitted refund claims totaling $25,790,000 eligible for processing at time of filing. The Company recognized $26,722,000 of IEEPA tariff refunds during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, consisting of $25,790,000 of principal recognized as a reduction of cost of goods sold, as all related inventory has been sold as of June 30, 2026, and $932,000 of excess amount recognized as interest income in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income. Of the total amount recognized, $25,192,000 had been received and $1,530,000 was deemed probable and recognized as prepaid expenses and other current assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2026.

The Company is a party to, and certain of its property is the subject of, various pending claims, government investigations and legal proceedings that routinely arise in the ordinary course of its business. Management believes that the outcome of such litigation and claims, should they arise in the future, is not likely to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
