CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2023 (this “Quarterly Report”) contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, future events and our financial performance. When used in this Quarterly Report, the words “believe,” “may,” “could,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “indicate,” “seek,” “should,” “would,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, though not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our industry, management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by management, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our control. Accordingly, we caution you that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, assumptions, estimates and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements about the following matters:

•future financial performance, including any growth or expansion plans and opportunities;

•our ability to expand our fire safety business;

•our beliefs regarding certain trends and growth drivers in our fire safety business;

•our ability to grow long-term value through, among other things, the continuing performance improvement of our existing operations, execution of a disciplined capital allocation and management of our capital structure;

•our expectations regarding future capital expenditures;

•cash flow projections;

•our ability to maintain a leadership position in any market;

•expectations concerning sources of revenue;

•expectations about demand for fire retardant products, equipment and services;

•the size of the markets we compete in and potential opportunities in such markets or new markets;

•our expectations regarding the impact of significant infrequent events, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and the conflict in Ukraine, on our business;

•expectations concerning certain of our products’ ability to protect life and property as population settlement locations change;

•expectations concerning the markets in which we will operate in the coming years, overall economic conditions and disruptive weather events;

•expectations concerning repurchases of our Ordinary Shares (as defined below) under the Share Repurchase Plan (as defined below);

•our beliefs regarding the sufficiency of our current sources of liquidity to fund our future liquidity requirements, our expectations regarding the types of future liquidity requirements and our expectations regarding the availability of future sources of liquidity;

•our expectations and beliefs regarding accounting and tax matters; and

•the expected outcome of litigation matters and the effect of such claims on business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date of this Quarterly Report, actual results may prove to be materially different from the results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to those summarized below:

•negative or uncertain worldwide economic conditions;

•volatility, seasonality and cyclicality in the industries in which we operate;

•our ability to realize the strategic and financial benefits of the Business Combination (as defined below);

3

•our substantial dependence on sales to the U.S. Department of Agriculture ("USDA") Forest Service and the state of California and the risk of decreased sales to these customers;

•changes in the regulation of the petrochemical industry, a downturn in the specialty chemicals and/or fire retardant end markets or our failure to accurately predict the frequency, duration, timing, and severity of changes in demand in such markets;

•changes in customer relations or service levels;

•a small number of our customers represent a significant portion of our revenue;

•failure to continuously innovate and to provide products that gain market acceptance, which may cause us to be unable to attract new customers or retain existing customers;

•improper conduct of, or use of our products, by employees, agents, government contractors or collaborators;

•changes in the availability of products from our suppliers on a long-term basis;

•production interruptions or shutdowns, which could increase our operating or capital expenditures or negatively impact the supply of our products resulting in reduced sales;

•changes in the availability of third-party logistics suppliers for distribution, storage and transportation;

•increases in supply and raw material costs, supply shortages, long lead times for components or supply changes;

•adverse effects on the demand for our products or services due to the seasonal or cyclical nature of our business or severe weather events;

•introduction of new products, which are considered preferable, which could cause demand for some of our products to be reduced or eliminated;

•current ongoing and future litigation, including multi-district litigation and other legal proceedings;

•heightened liability and reputational risks due to certain of our products being provided to emergency services personnel and their use to protect lives and property;

•future products liabilities claims where indemnity and insurance coverage could be inadequate or unavailable to cover these claims due to the fact that some of the products we produce may cause adverse health consequences;

•compliance with export control or economic sanctions laws and regulations;

•environmental impacts and side effects of our products, which could have adverse consequences for our business;

•compliance with environmental laws and regulations;

•our ability to protect our intellectual property rights and know-how;

•our ability to generate the funds required to service our debt and finance our operations;

•fluctuations in foreign currency exchange;

•potential impairments or write-offs of certain assets;

•the adequacy of our insurance coverage; and

•challenges to our decisions and assumptions in assessing and complying with our tax obligations.

For additional information regarding known material factors that could cause our actual results to differ from our projected results, please read (1) Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in the annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Annual Report”); (2) Part II, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report; (3) our reports and registration statements filed from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and (4) other public announcements we make from time to time.

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Organization and General

Perimeter Solutions, SA, (“PSSA”), a public company limited by shares (société anonyme) was incorporated on June 21, 2021 under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. PSSA is headquartered in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg with global operations in North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific. PSSA's ordinary shares, nominal value, $1.00 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), are listed on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") and trade under the symbol "PRM." The condensed consolidated financial statements herein include the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of PSSA and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned (collectively, the “Company”).

Business Operations

The Company is a global solutions provider for the fire safety and specialty chemical industries. Approximately 74% of the Company's 2022 annual revenues were derived in the United States, approximately 15% in Europe, approximately 5% in Canada and approximately 2% in Mexico, with the remaining approximately 4% spread across various other countries. The Company’s business is organized and managed in two reporting segments: Fire Safety and Specialty Products.

The Fire Safety business is a formulator and manufacturer of fire management products that help the Company’s customers combat various types of fires, including wildland, structural, flammable liquids and other types of fires. The Company’s Fire Safety business also offers specialized equipment and services, typically in conjunction with its fire management products to support firefighting operations. The Company’s specialized equipment includes air base retardant storage, mixing, and delivery equipment; mobile retardant bases; retardant ground application units; mobile foam equipment; and equipment that it custom designs and manufactures to meet specific customer needs. Significant end markets include primarily government-related entities and are dependent on approvals, qualifications, and permits granted by the respective governments and commercial customers around the world.

The Specialty Products segment produces and sells Phosphorus Pentasulfide ("P2S5") in several end markets and applications, including lubricant additives, various agricultural applications, various mining applications, and emerging electric battery technologies. Within the lubricant additives end market, currently the Company’s largest end market application, P2S5 is primarily used in the production of a family of compounds called Zinc Dialkyldithiophosphates (“ZDDP”), which is considered an essential component in the formulation of engine oils with its main function to provide anti-wear protection to engine components. P2S5 is also used in pesticide and mining chemicals applications.

Global Economic Environment

In recent years, the global economy and labor markets have experienced significant inflationary pressures attributable to ongoing economic recovery and supply chain issues, in part due to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the conflict in Ukraine. While the Company has limited exposure in Russia and Ukraine, it continues to monitor and take actions with its customers and suppliers to mitigate the impact of these inflationary pressures in the future. Actions to mitigate inflationary pressures with suppliers include aggregation of purchase requirements to achieve optimal volume benefits, negotiation of cost-reductions and identification of more cost competitive suppliers. While these actions are designed to offset the impact of inflationary pressures, the Company cannot provide assurance that they will be successful in fully offsetting increased costs resulting from inflationary pressure. In addition, interest payments for borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility are based on variable rates and any continued increase in interest rates may reduce the Company’s cash flow available for other corporate purposes.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that will be realized for the entire fiscal year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and accompanying notes thereto included in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report. The condensed consolidated financial statements for the prior periods include certain reclassifications that were made to conform to the current period presentation. Such reclassifications have no impact on previously reported condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany transactions and balances.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates made by management in connection with the preparation of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the useful lives of long-lived and intangible assets, the allowance for doubtful accounts, the fair value of financial assets and liabilities, stock options, founder advisory fees, contingent earn-out liability and realizability of deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s significant accounting policies are consistent with those discussed in Note 2 - “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements” in its consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report, except for performance-based non-qualified stock options ("PBNQSO") granted during the three months ended March 31, 2023 (“Q1-2023 Option Grants”) and modifications to PBNQSO’s as of May 8, 2023.

For PBNQSO’s granted during the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recognized compensation costs related to PBNQSO’s granted to employees and non-employees based on the estimated fair value of the awards on the date of grant. The Company estimated the grant date fair value, and the resulting share-based compensation expense, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company records forfeitures as they are incurred. The grant date fair value of the PBNQSO’s is expensed proportionately for each tranche over the applicable service period. The fair value of PBNQSO’s is recognized as compensation expense beginning at the time in which the performance conditions are deemed probable of achievement, over the remaining applicable service period. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model are as follows:

•Exercise price. The Company's Ordinary Share’s fair market value on the date of grant.

•Fair Market Value of Ordinary Shares. The grant date fair market value is the quoted market price of the Company's Ordinary Shares.

•Expected term. The expected term of stock options represents the period that the stock options are expected to remain outstanding and is based on vesting terms, exercise term and contractual lives of the options. The expected term is based on the simplified method and is estimated as the average of the weighted average vesting term and

10

the time to expiration as of the grant date. The simplified method was used due to the lack of historical exercise information.

•Expected volatility. As the Company does not have sufficient historical stock price information to meet the expected life of the stock option grants, it uses a blended volatility based on the Company’s short trading history and on the trading history from the common stock of a set of comparable publicly listed companies.

•Risk-free interest rate. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield with a maturity equal to the expected term of the stock options in effect at the time of grant.

•Dividend yield. The expected dividend is assumed to be zero as the Company has never paid dividends and has no current plan to pay any dividends on its Ordinary Shares.

As of May 8, 2023, to better account for seasonal fluctuations of the business, and to better align stock option performance with shareholder return, the Company modified certain terms in the PBNQSO agreements. One modification eliminated a term that provided discretion to the compensation committee to make certain adjustments on how the annual operational performance per diluted share (“AOP”) against the performance target will be measured. Such discretion prohibited the establishment of the grant date under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 718, “Compensation—Stock Compensation” (“Topic 718”). As of May 8, 2023, it was determined that a mutual understanding of the key terms and conditions of the PBNQSO’s has been ascertained and the grant date was therefore established for PBNQSO’s granted through December 31, 2022 (“Prior Grants”).

The modifications were determined to be a Type I (probable to probable) modification under Topic 718. As such, the Company performed a final fair value remeasurement under the original terms of Prior Grants using the Hull-White model and recognized the cumulative compensation cost to reflect the cumulative effect of re-measuring the compensation cost as of May 8, 2023. Subsequently, the Company calculated the modification date fair value for the PBNQSO’s based on the modified terms using (i) the Hull-White model that addresses the performance condition in the option agreements, and (ii) using the Monte Carlo simulation model that addresses the market condition in the option agreements. The modification did not result in any incremental share-based compensation expense for the Q1-2023 Option Grants.

The Company currently expects that the performance condition for the modified awards is probable of being achieved, accordingly, the fair value of the PBNQSO’s on the modification date, calculated using the Hull-White model and Black Scholes option-pricing model, as applicable, is recognized as compensation expense on a proportionate basis, for each tranche, over the remaining applicable service period. The Hull-White model requires us to make assumptions and judgments about the variables used in the calculation, including the sub-optimal exercise factor, drift rate, the volatility of our Ordinary Shares, risk-free interest rate, and expected dividends. Changes in assumptions made on the risk-free interest rate and expected volatility can materially impact the estimate of fair value and ultimately how much share-based compensation expense is recognized. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of modification and corresponds to remaining contractual term of the PBNQSO’s. As the Company does not have sufficient historical stock price information to meet the expected life of the stock option grants, it uses a blended volatility based on the Company’s short trading history and on the trading history from the common stock of a set of comparable publicly listed companies.

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Standards

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases, which required lessees to recognize a right of use asset and a lease liability on their balance sheet for all leases, including operating leases, with a term of greater than 12 months. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, which added a transition option permitting entities to apply the provisions of the new standard at its adoption date instead of the earliest comparative period presented in the consolidated financial statements. The Company adopted Topic 842 as of January 1, 2022 at December 31, 2022, using the optional transition method provided by ASU 2018-11. Refer to Note 6, "Leases," for additional disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments and issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance within ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05 and ASU 2019-11. The amendments required an entity to replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current U.S. GAAP with a new model that uses a forward-looking expected loss method, which generally results in earlier recognition of allowances for losses. The Company adopted the standard as of January 1, 2022 at December 31,

11

2022. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements with the most significant impact being the increase in allowance for doubtful accounts related to its trade accounts receivable. The adoption adjustment was recorded to accumulated deficit in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, and in January 2021 issued ASU No. 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope. These ASUs provided temporary optional expedients and exceptions to existing guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to facilitate the market transition from existing reference rates, such as London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) which is being phased out, to alternate reference rates, such as Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). These standards are elective and are effective upon issuance for all entities through December 31, 2022. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-06, which deferred the sunset date of reference rate reform relief to December 31, 2024. The switch in the reference rates from LIBOR to SOFR, under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility (defined below), occurred as of June 30, 2023. The Company did not have any outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, accordingly, the switch in the reference rates from LIBOR to SOFR did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

3. BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

Business Combination

On November 9, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), PSSA consummated the transactions (the “Business Combination”) contemplated by the business combination agreement with EverArc Holdings Limited, the former parent company of PSSA ("EverArc"), SK Invictus Holdings, S.à r.l., ("SK Holdings"), SK Invictus Intermediate S.à r.l., ("SK Intermediate"), doing business under the name Perimeter Solutions and EverArc (BVI) Merger Sub Limited, incorporated in the British Virgin Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of PSSA (the “Business Combination Agreement”) dated June 15, 2021.

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, EverArc entered into an escrow agreement with SK Holdings and Wilmington Trust, N.A., a national banking association, as escrow agent, which provided that approximately $7.6 million of the cash consideration payable pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement be held in escrow pending a determination of the post-closing purchase price adjustments under the Business Combination Agreement. On March 3, 2022, the post-closing purchase price adjustments under the Business Combination Agreement were finalized. Approximately $7.6 million held in escrow was released and an additional $1.6 million related to the difference in estimated and actual working capital as of the Closing Date was also paid to SK Holdings.

Revolving Credit Facility

On November 9, 2021, SK Invictus Intermediate II S.à r.l., a private limited liability company governed by the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg (“SK Intermediate II”), as borrower, entered into a five-year revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), which provides for a senior secured Revolving Credit Facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $100.0 million.

The Revolving Credit Facility matures on November 9, 2026. The Revolving Credit Facility includes a $20.0 million swingline sub-facility and a $25.0 million letter of credit sub-facility. The Revolving Credit Facility allows SK Intermediate II to increase commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the greater of (i) $143.0 million and (ii) 100.00% of consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) for the most recent four-quarter period (minus the aggregate outstanding principal amount of certain ratio debt permitted to be incurred thereunder). All borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, including the absence of a default and the accuracy of representations and warranties, subject to customary exceptions.

Solely to the extent that on the last day of the applicable fiscal quarter, the utilization of the Revolving Credit Facility (excluding cash collateralized letters of credit and up to $10.0 million of undrawn letters of credit) exceeds 40% of the aggregate commitments, the Revolving Credit Facility requires compliance on a quarterly basis with a maximum secured net leverage ratio of 7.50:1.00.

The Revolving Credit Facility is fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company and each of SK Intermediate II’s existing and future wholly-owned material restricted subsidiaries, subject to customary exceptions, and is secured by a first priority lien, subject to certain permitted liens, on substantially all of SK Intermediate II’s and each of the guarantors’ existing and future property and assets, subject to customary exceptions.

Deferred financing costs incurred in connection with securing the Revolving Credit Facility were $2.3 million, which is carried as a long-term asset in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and is amortized on a straight-line over the term of the Revolving Credit Facility and included in interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

16

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company did not have any outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and was in compliance with all covenants, including the financial covenants.

Senior Notes

On the Closing Date, SK Intermediate II assumed $675.0 million principal amount of 5.00% senior secured notes due October 30, 2029 (“Senior Notes”) issued by EverArc Escrow S.à r.l. (“Escrow Issuer”), a newly-formed limited liability company governed by the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and a wholly owned subsidiary of EverArc under an indenture dated as of October 22, 2021 (“Indenture”). The Senior Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 5.00%. Interest on the Senior Notes is payable in cash semi-annually in arrears on April 30 and October 30 of each year.

The Senior Notes are general, secured, senior obligations of SK Intermediate II; rank equally in right of payment with all existing and future senior indebtedness of SK Intermediate II (including, without limitation, the Revolving Credit Facility); and together with the Revolving Credit Facility, are effectively senior to all existing and future indebtedness of SK Intermediate II that is not secured by the collateral. The Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior secured basis, jointly and severally, by all of SK Intermediate II’s existing or future restricted subsidiaries (other than certain excluded subsidiaries) that guarantee the Revolving Credit Facility. The Senior Notes contain certain covenants limiting SK Intermediate II’s ability and the ability of the restricted subsidiaries (as defined in the indenture governing the Senior Notes) to, under certain circumstances, prepay subordinated indebtedness, pay distributions, redeem stock or make certain restricted investments; incur indebtedness; create liens on the SK Intermediate II’s assets to secure debt; restrict dividends, distributions or other payments; enter into transactions with affiliates; designate subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries; sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of assets, including equity interests of restricted subsidiaries; effect a consolidation or merger; and change the Company’s line of business.

Deferred financing costs incurred in connection with securing the Senior Notes were $11.0 million, which were capitalized and will be amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the Senior Notes and included in interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The unamortized portion of the deferred financing costs is included as a reduction to the carrying value of the Senior Notes which have been recorded as long-term debt, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Redeemable Preferred Shares

In connection with the Business Combination, the Company issued 10 million redeemable preferred shares of PSSA (“Redeemable Preferred Shares”), nominal value $10 per share, valued at $100.0 million. The Redeemable Preferred Shares are entitled to a preferred annual cumulative right to a dividend equal to 6.50% of its nominal value. The preferred dividend will generally be paid 40.00% in cash and 60.00% in kind each year within three business days following the Company's annual general meeting. Holders of the Redeemable Preferred Shares generally have no voting rights.

The Company, under its articles of association (the “Articles”) is mandatorily required to redeem the Redeemable Preferred Shares at any time prior to the earliest of (i) six months following the latest maturity date of the above-mentioned Senior Notes, (ii) nine years after the date of issuance of the Redeemable Preferred Shares or (iii) upon the occurrence of a change of control, as defined in the Company’s Articles. Due to the fact that the Redeemable Preferred Shares are mandatorily redeemable, the Redeemable Preferred Shares are classified as a liability in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, and $1.7 million, $3.4 million, $1.6 million and $3.3 million of dividends on these Redeemable Preferred Shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively, is recorded as interest expense in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $6.5 million and $4.5 million, respectively, of preferred dividends were in arrears.

The Redeemable Preferred Shares have an aggregate liquidation preference of $100.0 million, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon and is senior to the Ordinary Shares with respect to dividends and with respect to dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the redemption price was $106.5 million and $104.5 million, respectively.

8. INCOME TAXES

The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax, U.S. state and local tax and tax in foreign jurisdictions. The Company estimates its annual effective tax rate in recording its quarterly provision for income taxes in the various

17

jurisdictions in which it operates. The Company’s effective tax rate was 1.39% and (10.01)% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and 10.18% and (10.70)% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The primary differences between the effective tax rate and the amount computed by applying the Luxembourg statutory rate of 24.94% are related to losses not expected to be benefited in certain jurisdictions that have a valuation allowance, permanently non-deductible compensation, withholding taxes accrued on unremitted earnings and the impact of foreign tax rate differences.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, the Company considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. The Company considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities (including the impact of available carryback and carryforward periods), projected future taxable income, and tax-planning strategies in making this assessment. While the Company expects to realize the remaining net deferred tax assets, changes in future taxable income or in tax laws may alter this expectation and result in future increases to the valuation allowance. The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2023 and 2022 primarily relates to net operating loss and interest deduction limitation carryforwards that, in the judgment of the Company, are not more likely than not to be realized.

The Company evaluates its tax positions and recognizes only tax benefits that, more likely than not, will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that has a greater than 50.0% likelihood of being realized upon settlement. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, there was a decrease in unrecognized tax benefits of $34.0 million due to an amended tax filing. As of June 30, 2023, it is not expected that the Company’s remaining unrecognized tax benefits of $2.3 million will decrease within twelve months.

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved in various claims, actions, and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including a number of matters related to the aqueous film forming foam litigation consolidated in the District of South Carolina multi-district litigation and other similar matters pending in other jurisdictions in the United States. The Company’s exposure to losses, if any, is not considered probable or reasonably estimable at this time.

Commitments

The Company has a supply agreement to purchase elemental phosphorus (“P4”) from a supplier through 2023. The contract price is tied to the contract year cost times a multiplier, subject to a market-driven benchmark price adjustment, which is generally settled once per year. The Company did not purchase the anticipated minimum pounds of P4 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. However, the Company has no obligation to record a liability, as there is no financial penalty owed to the vendor. Purchases under this supply agreement were $7.9 million and $17.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and $10.3 million and $24.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

The Company also has an agreement to purchase various types of capital equipment up to $5.0 million through October 2027. As of June 30, 2023, the Company paid $2.6 million to the supplier and the remaining $2.4 million will be paid through October 2027.

10. EQUITY

The Company’s authorized share capital is $4,100.0 million, consisting of 4,000.0 million Ordinary Shares with a nominal value of $1.00 per share and 10.0 million Redeemable Preferred Shares with a nominal value of $10.00 per share. Each Ordinary Share entitles the holder thereof to one vote.

On July 21, 2022, subject to certain limits, the shareholders of the Company approved a proposal authorizing the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) to repurchase up to 25% of the Company’s Ordinary Shares outstanding as of the date of shareholders approval, being 40,659,257 Ordinary Shares, at any time during the next five years (the “Share

18

Repurchase Plan”). On November 3, 2022 the Board re-established the limit for Ordinary Share repurchases at $100.00 million, which is within the repurchase limit approved by the Company’s shareholders on July 21, 2022.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company repurchased 3,993,056 and 4,108,626 Ordinary Shares, respectively, under its Share Repurchase Plan. The repurchased Ordinary Shares are recorded at cost and are being held in treasury.

As of June 30, 2023, there were 154,520,833 Ordinary Shares, 33,843,440 warrants and 10,000,000 Redeemable Preferred Shares outstanding.

11. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION AND EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

2021 Equity Plan

In connection with the Business Combination, the Company’s Board adopted, and its shareholders approved, the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Equity Plan”). A total of 31,900,000 Ordinary Shares are authorized and reserved for issuance under the 2021 Equity Plan which provides for the grant of stock options (either incentive or non-qualified), stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance shares, performance share units and other share-based awards with respect to the Ordinary Shares. Shares associated with underlying awards that are expired, forfeited, or otherwise terminated without the delivery of shares, or are settled in cash, and any shares tendered to or withheld by the Company for the payment of an exercise price or for tax withholding will again be available for issuance under the 2021 Equity Plan.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company granted 2,175,000 PBNQSO’s that vest based on the achievement of certain performance goals for fiscal years 2023-2027 (the “5-Year Option”) to its chief executive officer and independent directors. The Company recognized compensation costs related to the 5-Year Option granted in 2023 based on the estimated fair value of the awards on the date of grant. The Company estimates the grant date fair value, and the resulting share-based compensation expense, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company records forfeitures as they are incurred. The grant date fair value of the PBNQSO is expensed proportionately for each tranche over the applicable service period. The fair value of performance-based stock options is recognized as compensation expense beginning at the time in which the performance conditions are deemed probable of achievement, over the remaining applicable service period.

On March 8, 2023, in connection changes in the Company’s leadership structure, it amended the performance terms and conditions of the outstanding 5-Year Options previously granted to its former chief executive officer (the “Executive”) where by 50% of such outstanding options eligible to vest in each of fiscal years from 2023 through 2026 will remain subject to the existing performance terms and conditions. The remaining 50% of such outstanding options will be eligible to vest in such fiscal years subject to the performance terms and conditions related to the Executive’s position and duties as Vice Chairman. For the remaining 50% of outstanding options, the Company’s compensation committee will establish performance goals and communicate them to the Executive and assess achievement annually. For accounting purposes, the Company will recognize compensation expense related to the remaining 50% of outstanding options when the specified performance goal for future periods have been established and communicated to the Executive.

In March 2023, based on the Company’s performance for 2022, its compensation committee verified and determined the Annual Operational Performance per Diluted Share (“AOP”) for the 2022 tranche of the 5-Year Option to be $8.39. As a result, it was determined that a mutual understanding of the key terms and conditions for the 2022 tranche had been ascertained and the grant date was therefore established. The cumulative compensation expense for the 2022 tranche was adjusted based on the fair value calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model at the grant date. As the AOP for the 2022 tranche was below the minimum vesting AOP target of $11.35 employees separated from the Company through the date of determination of the 2022 AOP relinquished 240,000 options retained by them relating the 2022 tranche and such options were cancelled by the Company.

As of May 8, 2023, the Company modified certain terms in the PBNQSO agreements as noted below:

•eliminated a term that provided discretion to the compensation committee to make certain adjustments on how AOP against the performance target will be measured with respect to the Prior Grants;

•eliminated the two-year look-back and two-year look-forward for excess AOP;

•adjusted the minimum and maximum AOP growth targets from 13.5% and 23.5% to 10% and 20%, respectively;

19

•added of cumulative vesting term, under which if the maximum AOP target was achieved in an option performance year, (including in any one of the two years immediately following the fifth and final year of the option term), any number of unvested options that were eligible to vest in all prior performance years, will be eligible to vest based on AOP calculated in such option performance year;

•added an alternative vesting provision if the market price of the Company's Ordinary Shares is more than twice the exercise price for a sustained period of time commencing in the third fiscal year after option grant; and

•made certain clarifying and other changes.

The above modifications affected all of the outstanding Prior Grants and Q1-2023 Option Grants and there was no incremental share-based compensation expense as a result of modifications.

The table below summarizes the PBNQSO activity for the six months ended June 30, 2023:

	Number of Options	Weighted-Average Exercise/Conversion Price		Weighted-Average Remaining Contractual Life (years)	Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands)
Outstanding at December 31, 2022	10,339,171	$	9.75
Granted	2,175,000	$	8.31
Exercised	—	$	—
Forfeited	(1,315,000)	$	10.00
Outstanding at June 30, 2023	11,199,171	$	9.44	8.70	$	—
Options vested and exercisable	245,004	$	10.00	6.69	$	—

The weighted-average assumptions used to fair value the PBNQSO on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and on the modification date using the Hull-White model were as follows:

	Q1-2023 Option Grants			Prior Grants
Dividend yield	—		%	—		%
Risk-free interest rate	3.93% to 4.18%			3.48%
Expected volatility	45.00		%	44.00%
Expected term (years)	6.50			8.50 to 9.25
Suboptimal exercise multiple	—			2.5
Drift rate	—		%	3.51% to 3.52%
Weighted average exercise price of options granted	$	8.31		$	9.78
Weighted average fair value of options granted	$	4.24		$	3.15

Non-cash share-based compensation expense recognized by the Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $1.2 million and $(1.9) million, respectively. Compensation expense is recognized based upon probability assessments of PBNQSOs that are expected to vest in future periods. Such probability assessments are subject to revision and, therefore, unrecognized compensation expense is subject to future changes in estimate. As of June 30, 2023, there was approximately $19.3 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested PBNQSOs expected to vest, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.7 years.

Founder Advisory Amounts

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the Company assumed the advisory agreement entered into on December 12, 2019 by EverArc ("Founder Advisory Agreement") with EverArc Founders, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("EverArc Founder Entity"), pursuant to which the EverArc Founder Entity, for the services provided to the Company, including strategic and capital allocation advice, is entitled to receive both a fixed amount (the “Fixed Annual Advisory Amount”) and a variable amount (the “Variable Annual Advisory Amount,” each an “Advisory Amount” and collectively, the “Advisory Amounts”) until the years ending December 31, 2027 and 2031, respectively. Under the Founder Advisory Agreement, at the election of the EverArc Founder Entity, at least 50% of the Advisory Amounts will be paid in Ordinary Shares and the remainder in cash.

20

The Fixed Annual Advisory Amount will be equal to 2,357,061 Ordinary Shares (1.5% of 157,137,410 Ordinary Shares outstanding) for each year through December 31, 2027 and is valued using the period end volume weighted average closing share price of our Ordinary Shares for ten consecutive trading days. The Variable Annual Advisory Amount for each year through December 31, 2031 is based on the appreciation of the market price of Ordinary Shares if such market price exceeds certain trading price minimums at the end of each reporting period and is valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model. Because up to 50% of the Advisory Amounts could be settled through a cash payment, 50% are classified as a liability and the remaining 50% is classified within equity. For Advisory Amounts classified within equity, the Company does not subsequently remeasure the fair value. For the Advisory Amounts classified as a liability, the Company remeasures the fair value at each reporting date, accordingly, the compensation expense recorded by the Company in the future will depend upon changes in the fair value of the liability-classified Advisory Amounts.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the fair value of the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount was calculated to be $69.4 million and $104.5 million, respectively, based on the period end volume weighted average closing share price for consecutive trading days of Ordinary Shares of $5.89 and $8.86, respectively. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the fair value of the Variable Annual Advisory Amount, determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model, was $103.5 million and $237.0 million, respectively.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized a reduction in the compensation expense related to the founders advisory fees-related party due to a decrease in fair value for liability-classified Advisory Amounts of $60.0 million and $84.3 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized a reduction in the compensation expense related to the founders advisory fees-related party due to a decrease in fair value for liability-classified Advisory Amounts of $20.5 million and $80.3 million, respectively.

12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair Value Measurement

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of their maturities. Borrowings under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility accrues interest at a floating rate tied to a standard short-term borrowing index, selected at the Company’s option, plus an applicable margin. The carrying amount of this floating rate debt approximates fair value based upon the respective interest rates adjusting with market rate adjustments. The carrying amount of the Company's Redeemable Preferred Shares equals the redemption price, which approximates fair value. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the estimated fair value of the Company’s Senior Notes, calculated using Level 2 inputs, based on bid prices obtained from a broker was approximately $534.9 million and $556.9 million, respectively.

The Company uses valuation approaches that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:

•Level 1 inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the reporting entity at the measurement date.

•Level 2 inputs: Other than quoted prices in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

•Level 3 inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

21

Liabilities by Hierarchy Level

The following tables set forth the Company’s liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis, by level, within the fair value hierarchy as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 (in thousands):

	Fair Value Measurements Using:
June 30, 2023	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Liabilities:
Founders advisory fees payable - related party	$	34,727	$	—	$	51,729	$	86,456
LaderaTech contingent earn-out included in other liabilities, non-current	—		—		7,665		7,665
Total liabilities	$	34,727	$	—	$	59,394	$	94,121
December 31, 2022
Liabilities:
Founders advisory fees payable - related party	$	56,883	$	—	$	118,490	$	175,373
LaderaTech contingent earn-out included in other liabilities, non-current	—		—		7,273		7,273
Total liabilities	$	56,883	$	—	$	125,763	$	182,646

The fair value of the founders advisory fees payable is based on the appreciation of the market price of Ordinary Shares if such market price exceeds certain trading price minimums at the end of each reporting period and is valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model, which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the fair value of the underlying Ordinary Shares, the risk-free interest rate, the expected equity volatility, and the expected term of the Founder Advisory Agreement. See Note 11, “Share-Based Compensation” for discussion of the fair value estimation on the founders advisory fees payable.

The fair value of the contingent earn-out related to the May 2020 purchase of LaderaTech, Inc. (“LaderaTech”) is measured on a recurring basis using Level 3 fair value inputs. The earn-out is based on 20% of gross profits upon achieving a revenue threshold exceeding $5.0 million through December 31, 2026 and is valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model. Significant changes in the projected revenue, projected gross margin, or discount rate would have a material impact on the fair value of the contingent consideration.

Changes in Level 3 Liabilities

The reconciliations for all liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) are as follows (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30, 2023				Six Months Ended June 30, 2023
	Founders Advisory Fees Payable - Related Party		LaderaTech Contingent Earn-out		Founders Advisory Fees Payable - Related Party		LaderaTech Contingent Earn-out

13. RELATED PARTIES

On November 9, 2021, in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, the Company, EverArc and the EverArc Founder Entity entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement (the “Founder Assignment Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company assumed, and agreed to pay, perform, satisfy and discharge in full, all of EverArc’s liabilities and obligations under the Founder Advisory Agreement.

In exchange for the services provided to the Company, including strategic and capital allocation advice, the EverArc Founder Entity is entitled to receive both the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount and the Variable Annual Advisory Amount from the Company.

The Fixed Annual Advisory Amount will be equal to 2,357,061 Ordinary Shares (1.5% of 157,137,410 Ordinary Shares outstanding) for each year through December 31, 2027 and valued using the period end volume weighted average closing share price for ten consecutive trading days of Ordinary Shares. The Variable Annual Advisory Amount for each year through December 31, 2031 is based on the appreciation of the market price of Ordinary Shares if such market price exceeds certain trading price minimums at the end of each reporting period and is valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model.

For 2022, the average price was $8.86 per Ordinary Share. The EverArc Founder Entity was entitled to receive the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount of 2,357,061 Ordinary Shares or a value of $20.9 million, based on average price of $8.86 per Ordinary Share (the “2022 Fixed Amount”). The EverArc Founder Entity did not qualify to receive the Variable Annual Advisory Amount as the average price of $8.86 per Ordinary Share for 2022 was lower than the average price of $13.63 per Ordinary Share established in 2021. Per the Founder Advisory Agreement, the EverArc Founder Entity elected to receive approximately 77.7% of the 2022 Fixed Amount in Ordinary Shares (1,831,653 Ordinary Shares) and approximately 22.3% of the 2022 Fixed Amount in cash ($4.7 million). On February 15, 2023, the Company issued 1,831,653 Ordinary Shares and paid $4.7 million in cash in satisfaction of the 2022 Fixed Amount.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company calculated the fair value of the Fixed Annual Advisory Amounts using the period end volume weighted average closing share price of Ordinary Shares for ten consecutive trading days of $5.89 and used a Monte Carlo simulation model to calculate the fair value of the Variable Annual Advisory Amount. These approaches resulted in fair values of $103.5 million for the Variable Annual Advisory Amount and $69.4 million for the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount, of which 50% may be paid in cash and recorded as a liability and the remaining 50% would be settled in Ordinary Shares. While the entire instrument is subject to the fair value calculation described above, the amount classified and recorded as equity remains consistent while the amount classified and recorded as a liability is updated each period.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized a reduction in share-based compensation expense related to a decrease in fair value for liability-classified Advisory Amounts of $60.0 million and $84.3 million, respectively, primarily due to the decrease in stock price.

The Company leases real property from the sellers of First Response Fire Rescue, LLC, River City Fabrication, LLC, and H&S Transport, LLC (collectively, “Ironman”). Shannon Horn, who serves as our Business Director, North America Retardant and Services, was one of the sellers of Ironman. The Company paid $0.1 million, $0.1 million, $0.2 million and $0.2 million to lease real property from Ironman during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

15. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share represents income available to ordinary shareholders divided by the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares outstanding during the reported period. Diluted earnings per share is based upon the weighted-average number of Ordinary Shares outstanding during the period plus additional weighted-average potentially dilutive Ordinary Share equivalents during the period when the effect is dilutive.

Basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding and earnings per share were as follows (in thousands, except share and per share data):

	Three Months Ended June 30, 2023		Three Months Ended June 30, 2022		Six Months Ended June 30, 2023		Six Months Ended June 30, 2022
Net income	$	52,014	$	8,927	$	61,445	$	45,890
Weighted-average shares outstanding:
Weighted average shares used in computing earnings per share, basic	156,525,006		162,917,478		157,109,418		161,591,704
Founders advisory fees	11,785,305		14,142,366		11,785,305		14,142,366
Weighted average shares used in computing earnings per share, diluted	168,310,311		177,059,844		168,894,723		175,734,070

Diluted earnings per share	$	0.31	$	0.05	$	0.36	$	0.26

As of June 30, 2023, 11.2 million PBNQSO and 17.6 million Ordinary Shares issuable under the Founder Advisory Agreement were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as the contingencies related to such instruments had not been met. In addition, 8.5 million Ordinary Shares equivalent warrants were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. As of June 30, 2022, 10.2 million PBNQSOs and 23.9 million Ordinary Shares issuable under the Founder Advisory Agreement were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as the contingencies related to such instruments had not been met. In addition, 8.5 million Ordinary Shares equivalent warrants were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

16. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company’s products and operations are managed and reported in two operating segments: Fire Safety and Specialty Products.

The Fire Safety segment manufactures and sells fire retardant and firefighting foam products, as well as specialized equipment and services typically offered in conjunction with these retardant and foam products.

The Specialty Products segment produces and sells P2S5 used in several end markets and applications, including lubricant additives, various agricultural applications, various mining applications, and emerging electric battery technologies. Within the lubricant additives end market, currently the Company’s largest end market application, P2S5 is primarily used in the production of a family of compounds called ZDDP, which is considered an essential component in the formulation of engine oils with its main function to provide anti-wear protection to engine components. P2S5 is also used in pesticide and mining chemicals applications.

Interest income, interest expense, other income (expense) and certain corporate operating expenses are neither allocated to the segments nor included in the measures of segment performance by the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”). The corporate category is not considered to be a segment. The CODM is the Company's CEO.

The Company’s CODM uses the segment net sales and Adjusted EBITDA to assess the ongoing performance of the Company’s business segments and to allocate resources. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted on a consistent basis for certain non-recurring or unusual items in a balanced manner and on a segment basis. These non-recurring or unusual items may include acquisition and integration related costs, management fees and other non-recurring items.

Our service network can meet the emergency resupply needs of over 150 air tanker bases in North America, as well as many other customer locations globally. The segment is built on the premise of superior technology, exceptional responsiveness to our customers’ needs, and a “never-fail” service network. Significant end markets include primarily government-related entities and are dependent on approvals, qualifications, and permits granted by the respective governments and commercial customers around the world.

The Specialty Products segment produces and sells Phosphorus Pentasulfide ("P2S5") in several end markets and applications, including lubricant additives, various agricultural applications, various mining applications, and emerging electric battery technologies. Within the lubricant additives end market, currently the Company’s largest end market application, P2S5 is primarily used in the production of a family of compounds called Zinc Dialkyldithiophosphates (“ZDDP”), which is considered an essential component in the formulation of engine oils with its main function to provide anti-wear protection to engine components. P2S5 is also used in pesticide and mining chemicals applications. We offer several grades of P2S5 with varying degrees of phosphorus content, particle size, distribution, and reactivity to global customers.

We operate seven business units within our two reporting segments. The business unit structure is meant to promote the decentralized execution and accountability and maintain the geography and product-specific focus and granularity necessary to drive continued improvement in our key operational value drivers. Our key operational value drivers are profitable new business, pricing our products and services to the value they provide, and continued productivity improvements. Each business unit has a business unit manager, who is responsible for achieving targeted financial and operational results.

Known Trends and Uncertainties

Growth in Fire Safety

We believe that our Fire Safety segment benefits from several secular growth drivers, including increasing fire severity, as measured by higher acres burned, longer fire seasons and a growing wildland urban interface resulting in a need for higher quantity of retardant use per acre and thereby necessitating an increase of the airtanker capacity. We believe that these trends are prevalent in North America, as well as globally and we expect these trends to continue and drive growth in demand for fire retardant products.

We are also attempting to grow our fire prevention and protection business, which is primarily focused on high hazard industries like electrical utilities, railroads and transportation agencies. Fire prevention products can be used to prevent fire ignitions and protect property from potential fire danger by providing proactive retardant treatment in high-risk areas. Treating these areas ahead of the fire season can potentially stop ignitions from equipment failures or sparks. Our new Phos-Chek Fortify product, applied before or early in the fire season, can provide long-term protection until a significant rainfall event. In addition, Phos-Chek Fortify can proactively be applied to protect high value assets and critical infrastructure from the danger of wildfire.

We have invested and intend to continue investing in the expansion of our fire safety business through acquisitions in order to further grow our global customer base.

Weather Conditions and Climate Trends

Our business is highly dependent on the needs of government agencies to suppress fires. As such, our financial condition and results of operations are significantly impacted by weather as well as environmental and other factors affecting climate change, which impact the number and severity of fires in any given year. Historically, sales of our products have been higher in the summer season of each fiscal year due to weather patterns which are generally correlated to a higher prevalence of wildfires. This is in part offset by the disbursement of our operations in both the northern and southern hemispheres, where the summer seasons alternate.

Global Economic Environment

In recent years, the global economy and labor markets have experienced significant inflationary pressures attributable to ongoing economic recovery and supply chain issues, in part due to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the conflict in Ukraine. While the Company has limited exposure in Russia and Ukraine, it continues to monitor and take actions with its customers and suppliers to mitigate the impact of these inflationary pressures in the future. Actions to mitigate inflationary pressures with suppliers include aggregation of purchase requirements to achieve optimal volume benefits, negotiation of cost-reductions and identification of more cost competitive suppliers. While these actions are designed to offset the impact of inflationary pressures, the Company cannot provide assurance that they will be successful in fully offsetting increased costs resulting from inflationary pressure. In addition, interest payments for borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility are based on variable rates and any continued increase in interest rates may reduce the Company’s cash flow available for other corporate purposes.

Net Sales. Net sales decreased by $24.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. Net sales in the Fire Safety segment decreased by $13.4 million, representing lower fire retardant sales of $16.3 million offset by a $2.9 million increase in fire suppressant sales. Fire retardant sales decreased $18.3 million in the Americas and $0.2 million in Asia Pacific due to decreased fire activity in those regions compared to the same period in 2022, partially offset by an increase of $2.2 million in Europe from improved pre-season sales. Fire retardant sales in a given geography are generally driven by the activity of the fire season in that geography. Fire suppressant sales increased $0.7 million in Europe due to geographic expansion along with sales of new fluorine free foam concentrates and $2.3 million in the Americas driven by growth in Class A foam sales into Canada along with foam system sales, partially offset by a decrease in product sales of $0.1 million in Asia Pacific. Net sales in the Specialty Products segment decreased $11.4 million, of which $10.1 million was in the Americas and $1.3 million was in Europe. The decrease in Specialty Products sales reflects a reduction in purchases by our specialty chemicals customers due to inventory destock in the end markets.

Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold decreased by $27.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease in Fire Safety segment of $23.1 million was primarily due to a $18.0 million decrease in amortization of inventory step-up related to the Business Combination, a $0.8 million decrease in labor and share-based compensation expense, $3.3 million decrease in material and manufacturing costs, and a $1.0 million decrease in other costs. The $4.8 million decrease in the Specialty Products segment was due to a $4.6 million decrease in raw material and manufacturing and other costs related to lower sales and a $0.4 million decrease in depreciation expense offset by a $0.2 million increase in other costs.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense. Selling, general and administrative expense decreased by $4.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily due to $2.6 million decrease in personnel related and share-based compensation expenses, a $0.7 million decrease in insurance costs, a $1.3 million decrease in logistics expenses, and a $0.2 million decrease in other costs.

The decrease in the fair value of the Annual Advisory Amounts for the three months ended June 30, 2023, of $60.0 million was primarily due to a reduction in the average price per Ordinary Share from $7.73 as of March 31, 2023, to $5.89 as of June 30, 2023. The decrease in the fair value of the Annual Advisory Amount for the three months ended June 30, 2022, of $20.5 million was primarily due to a reduction in the average price per Ordinary Share from $11.97 as of March 31, 2022, to $11.24 as of June 30, 2022.

Interest expense, net. Interest expense decreased by $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily due to a one-time, non-cash accounting accrual related to the Senior Notes of $1.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Loss (Gain) on Contingent Earn-out. The contingent earn-out related to the purchase of LaderaTech changed by $9.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 due to a reduction in the fair value of the contingent consideration by $9.4 million in 2022 as a result of a change in the forecast of the product mix from an earn-out eligible fire retardant to a non earn-out eligible Company developed fire retardant.

Unrealized Foreign Currency Loss. Unrealized foreign currency loss decreased by $3.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily due to favorable foreign currency rate changes, primarily in the Euro, during the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Income Tax Expense. Income tax expense decreased by $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease is due primarily to changes in earnings in jurisdictions that were not covered by a valuation allowance and the impact of non-deductible compensation and accrued withholding taxes on the annualized effective tax rate.

Fire retardant sales decreased $21.1 million in the Americas and $0.4 million in Asia Pacific due to decreased fire activity in those regions compared to the same period in 2022, partially offset by an increase of $3.1 million in Europe from improved pre-season sales. Fire retardant sales in a

29

given geography are generally driven by the activity of the fire season in that geography. Fire suppressant sales increased $2.8 million in Europe due to geographic expansion along with sales of new fluorine free foam concentrates and $3.1 million in the Americas driven by growth in foam systems sales, partially offset by a decrease in product sales of $0.6 million in Asia Pacific. Net sales in the Specialty Products segment decreased $25.6 million, of which $19.0 million was in the Americas and $6.6 million was in Europe. The decrease in Specialty Products sales reflects a reduction in purchases by our specialty chemicals customers due to inventory destock in the end markets.

Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold decreased by $38.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease in Fire Safety segment of $28.9 million was primarily due to a $24.1 million decrease in amortization of inventory step-up related to the Business Combination, a $1.5 million decrease in labor and share-based compensation expense, and $3.3 million in lower material and manufacturing and other costs. The $9.3 million decrease in the Specialty Products segment was due to a $9.4 million decrease in raw material and manufacturing and a $0.6 million decrease in depreciation expense, partially offset by a $0.7 million increase in lease expense and other costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have historically funded our operations primarily through cash flows from operations, borrowings under our revolving credit facility, and the issuance of debt and equity securities. However, future cash flows are subject to a number of variables, including the length and severity of the fire season, growth of the wildland urban interface and the availability of air tanker capacity, all of which could negatively impact revenues, earnings and cash flows, and potentially our liquidity if we do not moderate our expenditures accordingly. Our cash requirements, cash flows, indebtedness and available credit as of June 30, 2023 is discussed below.

We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents of approximately $22.1 million, net cash flows generated from operations and availability under the Revolving Credit Facility as of June 30, 2023 will be sufficient to meet our current capital expenditures, working capital, and debt service requirements for at least 12 months from the filing date of this Quarterly Report. As of June 30, 2023, we expect our remaining fiscal year 2023 capital expenditure budget of approximately $5.6 million, will cover both our maintenance and growth capital expenditures requirements for the remainder of 2023. We may also utilize borrowings under other various financing sources available to us, including the issuance of equity and/or debt securities through public offerings or private placements, to fund our acquisitions, the Advisory Amounts and long-term liquidity needs. Our ability to complete future offerings of equity or debt securities and the timing of these offerings will depend upon various factors including prevailing market conditions and our financial condition.

Revolving Credit Facility

On November 9, 2021, SK Invictus Intermediate II S.à r.l., a private limited liability company governed by the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg (“SK Intermediate II”), entered into a five-year revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), which provides for a senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $100.0 million.

The Revolving Credit Facility matures on November 9, 2026. The Revolving Credit Facility includes a $20.0 million swingline sub-facility and a $25.0 million letter of credit sub-facility. The Revolving Credit Facility allows SK Intermediate II to increase commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the greater of (i) $143.0 million and (ii) 100.00% of consolidated EBITDA for the most recent four-quarter period (minus the aggregate outstanding principal amount of certain ratio debt permitted to be incurred thereunder). All borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, including the absence of a default and the accuracy of representations and warranties, subject to certain exceptions.

Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to (i) an applicable margin, plus (ii) at SK Intermediate II’s option, either (x) London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) determined by reference to the cost of funds for U.S. dollar deposits for the interest period relevant to such borrowing, adjusted for certain additional costs (but which will not be less than a 0.00% LIBOR floor) or (y) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (a) the prime commercial lending rate published by the Wall Street Journal, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (c) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.00% and (d) a minimum floor of 1.00%. The applicable margin is 3.25% in the case of LIBOR-based

32

loans and 2.25% in the case of base rate-based loans, with two step downs of 0.25% each based upon the achievement of certain leverage ratios.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company did not have any outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and was in compliance with all covenants, including the financial covenants.

Senior Notes

On November 9, 2021, SK Intermediate II assumed $675.0 million principal amount of 5.00% senior secured notes due October 30, 2029 (“Senior Notes”) issued by EverArc Escrow S.à r.l. (“Escrow Issuer”), a newly-formed limited liability company governed by the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and a wholly owned subsidiary of EverArc under an indenture dated as of October 22, 2021 (“Indenture”). The Senior Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 5.00%. Interest on the Senior Notes is payable in cash semi-annually in arrears on April 30 and October 30 of each year.

The Senior Notes are general, secured, senior obligations of SK Intermediate II; rank equally in right of payment with all existing and future senior indebtedness of SK Intermediate II (including, without limitation, the Revolving Credit Facility); and together with the Revolving Credit Facility, are effectively senior to all existing and future indebtedness of SK Intermediate II that is not secured by the collateral.

For additional information about our long-term debt, refer to Note 7, “Long-Term Debt and Redeemable Preferred Shares,” in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.

Share Repurchase Plan

On December 7, 2021, subject to the approval of our shareholders, the Board authorized the Share Repurchase Plan. Under the Share Repurchase Plan, we and our subsidiaries are authorized to repurchase up to $100.0 million of our issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares at any time during the next 24 months or, if different, such other timeframe as approved by our shareholders. Until such time as the Share Repurchase Plan was approved by the shareholders of the Company, the Board authorized any subsidiary of the Company to take such actions necessary to purchase Ordinary Shares of the Company. Repurchases under the Share Repurchase Plan may be made, from time to time, in such quantities, in such manner and on such terms and conditions and at prices the Company deems appropriate.

On July 21, 2022, subject to certain limits, the shareholders’ of the Company approved a proposal authorizing the Board to repurchase up to 25% of the Company’s Ordinary Shares outstanding as of the date of the shareholders’ approval, being 40,659,257 Ordinary Shares, at any time during the next five years. On November 3, 2022, the Board re-established the limit for Ordinary Share repurchases at $100.0 million, which is within the repurchase limit approved by Company’s shareholder on July 21, 2022.

We repurchased 4,108,626 Ordinary Shares during the six months ended June 30, 2023. The repurchased Ordinary Shares were recorded at cost and are being held in treasury.

Founder Advisory Agreement

The advisory agreement entered into on December 12, 2019 by EverArc ("Founder Advisory Agreement") with EverArc Founders, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("EverArc Founder Entity"), which is owned and operated by William N. Thorndike, Jr., W. Nicholas Howley, Tracy Britt Cool, Vivek Raj and Haitham Khouri ("EverArc Founders"), pursuant to which the EverArc Founder Entity, for the services provided to the Company, including strategic and capital allocation advice, is entitled to receive both a fixed amount (the “Fixed Annual Advisory Amount”) and a variable amount (the “Variable Annual Advisory Amount,” each an “Advisory Amount” and collectively, the “Advisory Amounts”) until the years ending December 31, 2027 and 2031, respectively. Under the Founder Advisory Agreement, at the election of the EverArc Founder Entity, at least 50% of the Advisory Amounts will be paid in Ordinary Shares and the remainder in cash.

For 2022, the average price was $8.86 per Ordinary Share. The EverArc Founder Entity was entitled to receive the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount of 2,357,061 Ordinary Shares or a value of $20.9 million, based on average price of $8.86 per Ordinary Share (the “2022 Fixed Amount”). The EverArc Founder Entity did not qualify to receive the Variable Annual Advisory Amount as the average price of $8.86 per Ordinary Share for 2022 was lower than the average price of $13.63 per Ordinary Share established in 2021. Per the Founder Advisory Agreement, the EverArc Founder Entity elected

to receive approximately 77.7% of the 2022 Fixed Amount in Ordinary Shares (1,831,653 Ordinary Shares) and approximately 22.3% of the 2022 Fixed Amount in cash $4.7 million. On February 15, 2023, the Company issued 1,831,653 Ordinary Shares and paid $4.7 million in cash in satisfaction of the 2022 Fixed Amount.

As of June 30, 2023, the fair value of the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount was calculated to be $69.4 million based on the period end volume weighted average closing share price for ten consecutive trading days of Ordinary Shares of $5.89 and the fair value of the Variable Annual Advisory Amount was determined to be $103.5 million using a Monte Carlo simulation model.

For additional information about the Founder Advisory Agreement, refer to Note 11, “Share-Based Compensation” and Note 13, “Related Parties,” in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s significant accounting policies and estimates are consistent with those discussed in Note 2 - “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements” of its consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report filed on Form 10-K with the SEC on March 1, 2023, except for PBNQSO’s granted during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and modifications to PBNQSO’s as of May 8, 2023, refer to Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report. Significant estimates made by management in connection with the preparation of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the useful lives of long-lived and intangible assets, the allowance for doubtful accounts, the fair value of financial assets and liabilities, stock options, founder advisory fees, contingent earn-out liability and realizability of deferred tax assets. We are not presently aware of any events or circumstances that would require us to update our estimates, assumptions or revise the carrying value of our assets or liabilities. Our estimates may change, however, as new events occur and additional information is obtained. As a result, actual results may differ significantly from our estimates, and any such differences may be material to our financial statements. For information on the impact of recently issued accounting pronouncements, see Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements” in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, short-term interest rates and price fluctuations of certain material commodities in the ordinary course of our business. We have not engaged in hedging activities since inception and currently, do not expect to engage in any hedging activities with respect to the market risk to which we are exposed.

Foreign Currency Risk

Foreign currency exchange risks are attributable to sales to foreign customers and purchases from foreign suppliers not denominated in a location’s functional currency, foreign plant operations, intercompany indebtedness, intercompany investments and include exposures to the Euro, Canadian dollar, Norwegian krone and Australian dollar. We have elected to use the U.S. dollar for our Luxembourg entities. Transactions that are paid in a foreign currency are remeasured into U.S. dollars and recorded in the consolidated financial statements at prevailing currency exchange rates. A reduction in the value of the U.S. dollar against currencies of other countries could result in the use of additional cash to settle operating, administrative and tax liabilities.

Interest Rate Risk

For variable rate debt, interest rate changes generally do not affect the fair market value of such debt, but do impact future earnings and cash flows, assuming other factors are held constant. We are subject to market risk exposure related to changes in interest rates on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility. Interest on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility is based on adjusted LIBOR plus or base rate plus an applicable margin. At June 30, 2023, we had no borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility.

34

Commodity Price Risk

Our realized margins depend on the differential of sales prices over our total supply costs. Generally, we attempt to maintain an inventory position that is substantially balanced between our purchases and sales, including our future delivery obligations. However, market, weather or other conditions beyond our control may disrupt our expected supply of product, and we may be required to obtain supply at increased prices that cannot be passed through to our customers. For example, some of our material supply contracts follow market prices, which may fluctuate through the year, while our product sales prices may be fixed on a quarterly or annual basis, and therefore, fluctuations in our material supply may not be passed through to our customers and can produce an adverse effect on our margins.

Effects of Inflation

We are subject to inflationary pressures with respect to raw materials, labor and transportation. Accordingly, we continue to take actions with our customers and suppliers to mitigate the impact of these inflationary pressures in the future. Actions to mitigate inflationary pressures with customers include contractual price escalation clauses and negotiated customer recoveries. Actions to mitigate inflationary pressures with suppliers include aggregation of purchase requirements to achieve optimal volume benefits, negotiation of cost-reductions and identification of more cost competitive suppliers. While these actions are designed to offset the impact of inflationary pressures, the Company cannot provide assurance that it will be successful in fully offsetting increased costs resulting from inflationary pressure.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, at June 30, 2023, PSSA has evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including PSSA’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Our controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As described further in our 2022 Annual Report, PSSA’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer had concluded that as of December 31, 2022, the design and implementation of our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, due to the existence of material weaknesses. At June 30, 2023, the material weaknesses around control environment and control activities continued to exist. These material weaknesses include:

•Failure to design and implement review controls at a sufficient level of precision over the consideration of key terms and conditions affecting grant date in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation, when accounting for performance-based stock.

•Failure to design and implement review controls at a sufficient level of precision around complex accounting areas and related disclosures, including business combinations and goodwill impairment assessment, specifically related to the determination of carrying value and review of valuation assumptions.

•Failure to design and implement controls over the business combination and its effects on the presentation of the statement of cash flows, equity issuance costs, and transaction costs and the judgments made in the determination of purchase consideration.

Remediation Plan

We have begun enhancing the process of, and are focused on, designing and implementing effective internal control measures to improve our internal control over financial reporting and remediate the material weaknesses. Our internal control remediation efforts include the following:

•Implementing new controls and procedures.

•Hiring of additional qualified resources.

35

•Continuing engagement of outside resources to assist with the design and implementation of a system of risk-based internal controls that aligns to and is measured against the framework issued to the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) ("COSO 2013").

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Other than the changes described in the Remediation Plan detailed above, there were no changes to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

36

PART II

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We are involved in various claims, actions, and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including a number of matters related to the aqueous film forming foam litigation consolidated in the District of South Carolina multi-district litigation and other similar matters pending in other jurisdictions in the United States. Our exposure to losses, if any, is not considered probable or reasonably estimable at this time.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of PSSA’s 2022 Annual Report.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Below is a summary of share repurchases for the quarter ended June 30, 2023.

(1)On December 7, 2021, subject to the approval of the shareholders’ of the Company, the Board authorized a share repurchase plan (the “Share Repurchase Plan”). The Share Repurchase Plan allows the Company, which includes any subsidiary of the Company, to repurchase up to $100.0 million of its issued and outstanding Ordinary Shares at any time during the next 24 months or, if different, such other timeframe as approved by the shareholders of the Company. On July 21, 2022, subject to certain limits, the shareholders’ of the Company approved a proposal authorizing the Board to repurchase up to 25% of the Company’s Ordinary Shares outstanding as of the date of the shareholders’ approval, being 40,659,257 Ordinary Shares, at any time during the next five years. On November 3, 2022, the Board re-established the limit for Ordinary Share repurchases at $100.0 million, which is within the repurchase limit approved by Company’s shareholders’ on July 21, 2022.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Organization and General

Perimeter Solutions, SA, (“PSSA”), a public company limited by shares (société anonyme) was incorporated on June 21, 2021 under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. PSSA is headquartered in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg with global operations in North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific. PSSA's ordinary shares, nominal value, $1.00 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), are listed on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") and trade under the symbol "PRM." The condensed consolidated financial statements herein include the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of PSSA and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned (collectively, the “Company”).

Business Operations

The Company is a global solutions provider for the fire safety and specialty chemical industries. Approximately 74% of the Company's 2022 annual revenues were derived in the United States, approximately 15% in Europe, approximately 5% in Canada and approximately 2% in Mexico, with the remaining approximately 4% spread across various other countries. The Company’s business is organized and managed in two reporting segments: Fire Safety and Specialty Products.

The Fire Safety business is a formulator and manufacturer of fire management products that help the Company’s customers combat various types of fires, including wildland, structural, flammable liquids and other types of fires. The Company’s Fire Safety business also offers specialized equipment and services, typically in conjunction with its fire management products to support firefighting operations. The Company’s specialized equipment includes air base retardant storage, mixing, and delivery equipment; mobile retardant bases; retardant ground application units; mobile foam equipment; and equipment that it custom designs and manufactures to meet specific customer needs. Significant end markets include primarily government-related entities and are dependent on approvals, qualifications, and permits granted by the respective governments and commercial customers around the world.

The Specialty Products segment produces and sells Phosphorus Pentasulfide ("P2S5") in several end markets and applications, including lubricant additives, various agricultural applications, various mining applications, and emerging electric battery technologies. Within the lubricant additives end market, currently the Company’s largest end market application, P2S5 is primarily used in the production of a family of compounds called Zinc Dialkyldithiophosphates (“ZDDP”), which is considered an essential component in the formulation of engine oils with its main function to provide anti-wear protection to engine components. P2S5 is also used in pesticide and mining chemicals applications.

Global Economic Environment

In recent years, the global economy and labor markets have experienced significant inflationary pressures attributable to ongoing economic recovery and supply chain issues, in part due to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the conflict in Ukraine. While the Company has limited exposure in Russia and Ukraine, it continues to monitor and take actions with its customers and suppliers to mitigate the impact of these inflationary pressures in the future. Actions to mitigate inflationary pressures with suppliers include aggregation of purchase requirements to achieve optimal volume benefits, negotiation of cost-reductions and identification of more cost competitive suppliers. While these actions are designed to offset the impact of inflationary pressures, the Company cannot provide assurance that they will be successful in fully offsetting increased costs resulting from inflationary pressure. In addition, interest payments for borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility are based on variable rates and any continued increase in interest rates may reduce the Company’s cash flow available for other corporate purposes.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that will be realized for the entire fiscal year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and accompanying notes thereto included in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report. The condensed consolidated financial statements for the prior periods include certain reclassifications that were made to conform to the current period presentation. Such reclassifications have no impact on previously reported condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany transactions and balances.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates made by management in connection with the preparation of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the useful lives of long-lived and intangible assets, the allowance for doubtful accounts, the fair value of financial assets and liabilities, stock options, founder advisory fees, contingent earn-out liability and realizability of deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s significant accounting policies are consistent with those discussed in Note 2 - “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements” in its consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report, except for performance-based non-qualified stock options ("PBNQSO") granted during the three months ended March 31, 2023 (“Q1-2023 Option Grants”) and modifications to PBNQSO’s as of May 8, 2023.

For PBNQSO’s granted during the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recognized compensation costs related to PBNQSO’s granted to employees and non-employees based on the estimated fair value of the awards on the date of grant. The Company estimated the grant date fair value, and the resulting share-based compensation expense, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company records forfeitures as they are incurred. The grant date fair value of the PBNQSO’s is expensed proportionately for each tranche over the applicable service period. The fair value of PBNQSO’s is recognized as compensation expense beginning at the time in which the performance conditions are deemed probable of achievement, over the remaining applicable service period. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model are as follows:

•Exercise price. The Company's Ordinary Share’s fair market value on the date of grant.

•Fair Market Value of Ordinary Shares. The grant date fair market value is the quoted market price of the Company's Ordinary Shares.

•Expected term. The expected term of stock options represents the period that the stock options are expected to remain outstanding and is based on vesting terms, exercise term and contractual lives of the options. The expected term is based on the simplified method and is estimated as the average of the weighted average vesting term and

the time to expiration as of the grant date. The simplified method was used due to the lack of historical exercise information.

•Expected volatility. As the Company does not have sufficient historical stock price information to meet the expected life of the stock option grants, it uses a blended volatility based on the Company’s short trading history and on the trading history from the common stock of a set of comparable publicly listed companies.

•Risk-free interest rate. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield with a maturity equal to the expected term of the stock options in effect at the time of grant.

•Dividend yield. The expected dividend is assumed to be zero as the Company has never paid dividends and has no current plan to pay any dividends on its Ordinary Shares.

As of May 8, 2023, to better account for seasonal fluctuations of the business, and to better align stock option performance with shareholder return, the Company modified certain terms in the PBNQSO agreements. One modification eliminated a term that provided discretion to the compensation committee to make certain adjustments on how the annual operational performance per diluted share (“AOP”) against the performance target will be measured. Such discretion prohibited the establishment of the grant date under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 718, “Compensation—Stock Compensation” (“Topic 718”). As of May 8, 2023, it was determined that a mutual understanding of the key terms and conditions of the PBNQSO’s has been ascertained and the grant date was therefore established for PBNQSO’s granted through December 31, 2022 (“Prior Grants”).

The modifications were determined to be a Type I (probable to probable) modification under Topic 718. As such, the Company performed a final fair value remeasurement under the original terms of Prior Grants using the Hull-White model and recognized the cumulative compensation cost to reflect the cumulative effect of re-measuring the compensation cost as of May 8, 2023. Subsequently, the Company calculated the modification date fair value for the PBNQSO’s based on the modified terms using (i) the Hull-White model that addresses the performance condition in the option agreements, and (ii) using the Monte Carlo simulation model that addresses the market condition in the option agreements. The modification did not result in any incremental share-based compensation expense for the Q1-2023 Option Grants.

The Company currently expects that the performance condition for the modified awards is probable of being achieved, accordingly, the fair value of the PBNQSO’s on the modification date, calculated using the Hull-White model and Black Scholes option-pricing model, as applicable, is recognized as compensation expense on a proportionate basis, for each tranche, over the remaining applicable service period. The Hull-White model requires us to make assumptions and judgments about the variables used in the calculation, including the sub-optimal exercise factor, drift rate, the volatility of our Ordinary Shares, risk-free interest rate, and expected dividends. Changes in assumptions made on the risk-free interest rate and expected volatility can materially impact the estimate of fair value and ultimately how much share-based compensation expense is recognized. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of modification and corresponds to remaining contractual term of the PBNQSO’s. As the Company does not have sufficient historical stock price information to meet the expected life of the stock option grants, it uses a blended volatility based on the Company’s short trading history and on the trading history from the common stock of a set of comparable publicly listed companies.

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Standards

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases, which required lessees to recognize a right of use asset and a lease liability on their balance sheet for all leases, including operating leases, with a term of greater than 12 months. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, which added a transition option permitting entities to apply the provisions of the new standard at its adoption date instead of the earliest comparative period presented in the consolidated financial statements. The Company adopted Topic 842 as of January 1, 2022 at December 31, 2022, using the optional transition method provided by ASU 2018-11. Refer to Note 6, "Leases," for additional disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments and issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance within ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05 and ASU 2019-11. The amendments required an entity to replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current U.S. GAAP with a new model that uses a forward-looking expected loss method, which generally results in earlier recognition of allowances for losses. The Company adopted the standard as of January 1, 2022 at December 31,

2022. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements with the most significant impact being the increase in allowance for doubtful accounts related to its trade accounts receivable. The adoption adjustment was recorded to accumulated deficit in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, and in January 2021 issued ASU No. 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope. These ASUs provided temporary optional expedients and exceptions to existing guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to facilitate the market transition from existing reference rates, such as London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) which is being phased out, to alternate reference rates, such as Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). These standards are elective and are effective upon issuance for all entities through December 31, 2022. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-06, which deferred the sunset date of reference rate reform relief to December 31, 2024. The switch in the reference rates from LIBOR to SOFR, under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility (defined below), occurred as of June 30, 2023. The Company did not have any outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, accordingly, the switch in the reference rates from LIBOR to SOFR did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Revolving Credit Facility

On November 9, 2021, SK Invictus Intermediate II S.à r.l., a private limited liability company governed by the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg (“SK Intermediate II”), as borrower, entered into a five-year revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), which provides for a senior secured Revolving Credit Facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $100.0 million.

The Revolving Credit Facility matures on November 9, 2026. The Revolving Credit Facility includes a $20.0 million swingline sub-facility and a $25.0 million letter of credit sub-facility. The Revolving Credit Facility allows SK Intermediate II to increase commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the greater of (i) $143.0 million and (ii) 100.00% of consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) for the most recent four-quarter period (minus the aggregate outstanding principal amount of certain ratio debt permitted to be incurred thereunder). All borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are subject to the satisfaction of customary conditions, including the absence of a default and the accuracy of representations and warranties, subject to customary exceptions.

Solely to the extent that on the last day of the applicable fiscal quarter, the utilization of the Revolving Credit Facility (excluding cash collateralized letters of credit and up to $10.0 million of undrawn letters of credit) exceeds 40% of the aggregate commitments, the Revolving Credit Facility requires compliance on a quarterly basis with a maximum secured net leverage ratio of 7.50:1.00.

The Revolving Credit Facility is fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company and each of SK Intermediate II’s existing and future wholly-owned material restricted subsidiaries, subject to customary exceptions, and is secured by a first priority lien, subject to certain permitted liens, on substantially all of SK Intermediate II’s and each of the guarantors’ existing and future property and assets, subject to customary exceptions.

Deferred financing costs incurred in connection with securing the Revolving Credit Facility were $2.3 million, which is carried as a long-term asset in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and is amortized on a straight-line over the term of the Revolving Credit Facility and included in interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company did not have any outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and was in compliance with all covenants, including the financial covenants.

Senior Notes

On the Closing Date, SK Intermediate II assumed $675.0 million principal amount of 5.00% senior secured notes due October 30, 2029 (“Senior Notes”) issued by EverArc Escrow S.à r.l. (“Escrow Issuer”), a newly-formed limited liability company governed by the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and a wholly owned subsidiary of EverArc under an indenture dated as of October 22, 2021 (“Indenture”). The Senior Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 5.00%. Interest on the Senior Notes is payable in cash semi-annually in arrears on April 30 and October 30 of each year.

The Senior Notes are general, secured, senior obligations of SK Intermediate II; rank equally in right of payment with all existing and future senior indebtedness of SK Intermediate II (including, without limitation, the Revolving Credit Facility); and together with the Revolving Credit Facility, are effectively senior to all existing and future indebtedness of SK Intermediate II that is not secured by the collateral. The Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior secured basis, jointly and severally, by all of SK Intermediate II’s existing or future restricted subsidiaries (other than certain excluded subsidiaries) that guarantee the Revolving Credit Facility. The Senior Notes contain certain covenants limiting SK Intermediate II’s ability and the ability of the restricted subsidiaries (as defined in the indenture governing the Senior Notes) to, under certain circumstances, prepay subordinated indebtedness, pay distributions, redeem stock or make certain restricted investments; incur indebtedness; create liens on the SK Intermediate II’s assets to secure debt; restrict dividends, distributions or other payments; enter into transactions with affiliates; designate subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries; sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of assets, including equity interests of restricted subsidiaries; effect a consolidation or merger; and change the Company’s line of business.

Deferred financing costs incurred in connection with securing the Senior Notes were $11.0 million, which were capitalized and will be amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the Senior Notes and included in interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The unamortized portion of the deferred financing costs is included as a reduction to the carrying value of the Senior Notes which have been recorded as long-term debt, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Redeemable Preferred Shares

In connection with the Business Combination, the Company issued 10 million redeemable preferred shares of PSSA (“Redeemable Preferred Shares”), nominal value $10 per share, valued at $100.0 million. The Redeemable Preferred Shares are entitled to a preferred annual cumulative right to a dividend equal to 6.50% of its nominal value. The preferred dividend will generally be paid 40.00% in cash and 60.00% in kind each year within three business days following the Company's annual general meeting. Holders of the Redeemable Preferred Shares generally have no voting rights.

The Company, under its articles of association (the “Articles”) is mandatorily required to redeem the Redeemable Preferred Shares at any time prior to the earliest of (i) six months following the latest maturity date of the above-mentioned Senior Notes, (ii) nine years after the date of issuance of the Redeemable Preferred Shares or (iii) upon the occurrence of a change of control, as defined in the Company’s Articles. Due to the fact that the Redeemable Preferred Shares are mandatorily redeemable, the Redeemable Preferred Shares are classified as a liability in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, and $1.7 million, $3.4 million, $1.6 million and $3.3 million of dividends on these Redeemable Preferred Shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively, is recorded as interest expense in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $6.5 million and $4.5 million, respectively, of preferred dividends were in arrears.

The Redeemable Preferred Shares have an aggregate liquidation preference of $100.0 million, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon and is senior to the Ordinary Shares with respect to dividends and with respect to dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the redemption price was $106.5 million and $104.5 million, respectively.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

INCOME TAXES

INCOME TAXESThe Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax, U.S. state and local tax and tax in foreign jurisdictions. The Company estimates its annual effective tax rate in recording its quarterly provision for income taxes in the various

jurisdictions in which it operates. The Company’s effective tax rate was 1.39% and (10.01)% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, and 10.18% and (10.70)% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The primary differences between the effective tax rate and the amount computed by applying the Luxembourg statutory rate of 24.94% are related to losses not expected to be benefited in certain jurisdictions that have a valuation allowance, permanently non-deductible compensation, withholding taxes accrued on unremitted earnings and the impact of foreign tax rate differences.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, the Company considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. The Company considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities (including the impact of available carryback and carryforward periods), projected future taxable income, and tax-planning strategies in making this assessment. While the Company expects to realize the remaining net deferred tax assets, changes in future taxable income or in tax laws may alter this expectation and result in future increases to the valuation allowance. The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2023 and 2022 primarily relates to net operating loss and interest deduction limitation carryforwards that, in the judgment of the Company, are not more likely than not to be realized.

The Company evaluates its tax positions and recognizes only tax benefits that, more likely than not, will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that has a greater than 50.0% likelihood of being realized upon settlement. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, there was a decrease in unrecognized tax benefits of $34.0 million due to an amended tax filing. As of June 30, 2023, it is not expected that the Company’s remaining unrecognized tax benefits of $2.3 million will decrease within twelve months.

HARE-BASED COMPENSATION AND EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

2021 Equity Plan

In connection with the Business Combination, the Company’s Board adopted, and its shareholders approved, the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Equity Plan”). A total of 31,900,000 Ordinary Shares are authorized and reserved for issuance under the 2021 Equity Plan which provides for the grant of stock options (either incentive or non-qualified), stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance shares, performance share units and other share-based awards with respect to the Ordinary Shares. Shares associated with underlying awards that are expired, forfeited, or otherwise terminated without the delivery of shares, or are settled in cash, and any shares tendered to or withheld by the Company for the payment of an exercise price or for tax withholding will again be available for issuance under the 2021 Equity Plan.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company granted 2,175,000 PBNQSO’s that vest based on the achievement of certain performance goals for fiscal years 2023-2027 (the “5-Year Option”) to its chief executive officer and independent directors. The Company recognized compensation costs related to the 5-Year Option granted in 2023 based on the estimated fair value of the awards on the date of grant. The Company estimates the grant date fair value, and the resulting share-based compensation expense, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company records forfeitures as they are incurred. The grant date fair value of the PBNQSO is expensed proportionately for each tranche over the applicable service period. The fair value of performance-based stock options is recognized as compensation expense beginning at the time in which the performance conditions are deemed probable of achievement, over the remaining applicable service period.

On March 8, 2023, in connection changes in the Company’s leadership structure, it amended the performance terms and conditions of the outstanding 5-Year Options previously granted to its former chief executive officer (the “Executive”) where by 50% of such outstanding options eligible to vest in each of fiscal years from 2023 through 2026 will remain subject to the existing performance terms and conditions. The remaining 50% of such outstanding options will be eligible to vest in such fiscal years subject to the performance terms and conditions related to the Executive’s position and duties as Vice Chairman. For the remaining 50% of outstanding options, the Company’s compensation committee will establish performance goals and communicate them to the Executive and assess achievement annually. For accounting purposes, the Company will recognize compensation expense related to the remaining 50% of outstanding options when the specified performance goal for future periods have been established and communicated to the Executive.

In March 2023, based on the Company’s performance for 2022, its compensation committee verified and determined the Annual Operational Performance per Diluted Share (“AOP”) for the 2022 tranche of the 5-Year Option to be $8.39. As a result, it was determined that a mutual understanding of the key terms and conditions for the 2022 tranche had been ascertained and the grant date was therefore established. The cumulative compensation expense for the 2022 tranche was adjusted based on the fair value calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model at the grant date. As the AOP for the 2022 tranche was below the minimum vesting AOP target of $11.35 employees separated from the Company through the date of determination of the 2022 AOP relinquished 240,000 options retained by them relating the 2022 tranche and such options were cancelled by the Company.

As of May 8, 2023, the Company modified certain terms in the PBNQSO agreements as noted below:

•eliminated a term that provided discretion to the compensation committee to make certain adjustments on how AOP against the performance target will be measured with respect to the Prior Grants;

•eliminated the two-year look-back and two-year look-forward for excess AOP;

•adjusted the minimum and maximum AOP growth targets from 13.5% and 23.5% to 10% and 20%, respectively;

•added of cumulative vesting term, under which if the maximum AOP target was achieved in an option performance year, (including in any one of the two years immediately following the fifth and final year of the option term), any number of unvested options that were eligible to vest in all prior performance years, will be eligible to vest based on AOP calculated in such option performance year;

•added an alternative vesting provision if the market price of the Company's Ordinary Shares is more than twice the exercise price for a sustained period of time commencing in the third fiscal year after option grant; and

•made certain clarifying and other changes.

The above modifications affected all of the outstanding Prior Grants and Q1-2023 Option Grants and there was no incremental share-based compensation expense as a result of modifications.

The table below summarizes the PBNQSO activity for the six months ended June 30, 2023:

	Number of Options	Weighted-Average Exercise/Conversion Price		Weighted-Average Remaining Contractual Life (years)	Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands)
Outstanding at December 31, 2022	10,339,171	$	9.75
Granted	2,175,000	$	8.31
Exercised	—	$	—
Forfeited	(1,315,000)	$	10.00

Options vested and exercisable	245,004	$	10.00	6.69	$	—

The weighted-average assumptions used to fair value the PBNQSO on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and on the modification date using the Hull-White model were as follows:

	Q1-2023 Option Grants			Prior Grants
Dividend yield	—		%	—		%
Risk-free interest rate	3.93% to 4.18%			3.48%
Expected volatility	45.00		%	44.00%
Expected term (years)	6.50			8.50 to 9.25
Suboptimal exercise multiple	—			2.5
Drift rate	—		%	3.51% to 3.52%
Weighted average exercise price of options granted	$	8.31		$	9.78
Weighted average fair value of options granted	$	4.24		$	3.15

Non-cash share-based compensation expense recognized by the Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $1.2 million and $(1.9) million, respectively. Compensation expense is recognized based upon probability assessments of PBNQSOs that are expected to vest in future periods. Such probability assessments are subject to revision and, therefore, unrecognized compensation expense is subject to future changes in estimate. As of June 30, 2023, there was approximately $19.3 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested PBNQSOs expected to vest, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.7 years.

Founder Advisory Amounts

Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the Company assumed the advisory agreement entered into on December 12, 2019 by EverArc ("Founder Advisory Agreement") with EverArc Founders, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("EverArc Founder Entity"), pursuant to which the EverArc Founder Entity, for the services provided to the Company, including strategic and capital allocation advice, is entitled to receive both a fixed amount (the “Fixed Annual Advisory Amount”) and a variable amount (the “Variable Annual Advisory Amount,” each an “Advisory Amount” and collectively, the “Advisory Amounts”) until the years ending December 31, 2027 and 2031, respectively. Under the Founder Advisory Agreement, at the election of the EverArc Founder Entity, at least 50% of the Advisory Amounts will be paid in Ordinary Shares and the remainder in cash.

The Fixed Annual Advisory Amount will be equal to 2,357,061 Ordinary Shares (1.5% of 157,137,410 Ordinary Shares outstanding) for each year through December 31, 2027 and is valued using the period end volume weighted average closing share price of our Ordinary Shares for ten consecutive trading days. The Variable Annual Advisory Amount for each year through December 31, 2031 is based on the appreciation of the market price of Ordinary Shares if such market price exceeds certain trading price minimums at the end of each reporting period and is valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model. Because up to 50% of the Advisory Amounts could be settled through a cash payment, 50% are classified as a liability and the remaining 50% is classified within equity. For Advisory Amounts classified within equity, the Company does not subsequently remeasure the fair value. For the Advisory Amounts classified as a liability, the Company remeasures the fair value at each reporting date, accordingly, the compensation expense recorded by the Company in the future will depend upon changes in the fair value of the liability-classified Advisory Amounts.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the fair value of the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount was calculated to be $69.4 million and $104.5 million, respectively, based on the period end volume weighted average closing share price for consecutive trading days of Ordinary Shares of $5.89 and $8.86, respectively. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the fair value of the Variable Annual Advisory Amount, determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model, was $103.5 million and $237.0 million, respectively.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized a reduction in the compensation expense related to the founders advisory fees-related party due to a decrease in fair value for liability-classified Advisory Amounts of $60.0 million and $84.3 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized a reduction in the compensation expense related to the founders advisory fees-related party due to a decrease in fair value for liability-classified Advisory Amounts of $20.5 million and $80.3 million, respectively.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair Value Measurement

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of their maturities. Borrowings under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility accrues interest at a floating rate tied to a standard short-term borrowing index, selected at the Company’s option, plus an applicable margin. The carrying amount of this floating rate debt approximates fair value based upon the respective interest rates adjusting with market rate adjustments. The carrying amount of the Company's Redeemable Preferred Shares equals the redemption price, which approximates fair value. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the estimated fair value of the Company’s Senior Notes, calculated using Level 2 inputs, based on bid prices obtained from a broker was approximately $534.9 million and $556.9 million, respectively.

The Company uses valuation approaches that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:

•Level 1 inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the reporting entity at the measurement date.

•Level 2 inputs: Other than quoted prices in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

•Level 3 inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

Liabilities by Hierarchy Level

The following tables set forth the Company’s liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis, by level, within the fair value hierarchy as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 (in thousands):

	Fair Value Measurements Using:
June 30, 2023	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Liabilities:
Founders advisory fees payable - related party	$	34,727	$	—	$	51,729	$	86,456
LaderaTech contingent earn-out included in other liabilities, non-current	—		—		7,665		7,665
Total liabilities	$	34,727	$	—	$	59,394	$	94,121

Total liabilities	$	56,883	$	—	$	125,763	$	182,646

The fair value of the founders advisory fees payable is based on the appreciation of the market price of Ordinary Shares if such market price exceeds certain trading price minimums at the end of each reporting period and is valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model, which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the fair value of the underlying Ordinary Shares, the risk-free interest rate, the expected equity volatility, and the expected term of the Founder Advisory Agreement. See Note 11, “Share-Based Compensation” for discussion of the fair value estimation on the founders advisory fees payable.

The fair value of the contingent earn-out related to the May 2020 purchase of LaderaTech, Inc. (“LaderaTech”) is measured on a recurring basis using Level 3 fair value inputs. The earn-out is based on 20% of gross profits upon achieving a revenue threshold exceeding $5.0 million through December 31, 2026 and is valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model. Significant changes in the projected revenue, projected gross margin, or discount rate would have a material impact on the fair value of the contingent consideration.

RELATED PARTIES

On November 9, 2021, in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, the Company, EverArc and the EverArc Founder Entity entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement (the “Founder Assignment Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company assumed, and agreed to pay, perform, satisfy and discharge in full, all of EverArc’s liabilities and obligations under the Founder Advisory Agreement.

In exchange for the services provided to the Company, including strategic and capital allocation advice, the EverArc Founder Entity is entitled to receive both the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount and the Variable Annual Advisory Amount from the Company.

The Fixed Annual Advisory Amount will be equal to 2,357,061 Ordinary Shares (1.5% of 157,137,410 Ordinary Shares outstanding) for each year through December 31, 2027 and valued using the period end volume weighted average closing share price for ten consecutive trading days of Ordinary Shares. The Variable Annual Advisory Amount for each year through December 31, 2031 is based on the appreciation of the market price of Ordinary Shares if such market price exceeds certain trading price minimums at the end of each reporting period and is valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model.

For 2022, the average price was $8.86 per Ordinary Share. The EverArc Founder Entity was entitled to receive the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount of 2,357,061 Ordinary Shares or a value of $20.9 million, based on average price of $8.86 per Ordinary Share (the “2022 Fixed Amount”). The EverArc Founder Entity did not qualify to receive the Variable Annual Advisory Amount as the average price of $8.86 per Ordinary Share for 2022 was lower than the average price of $13.63 per Ordinary Share established in 2021. Per the Founder Advisory Agreement, the EverArc Founder Entity elected to receive approximately 77.7% of the 2022 Fixed Amount in Ordinary Shares (1,831,653 Ordinary Shares) and approximately 22.3% of the 2022 Fixed Amount in cash ($4.7 million). On February 15, 2023, the Company issued 1,831,653 Ordinary Shares and paid $4.7 million in cash in satisfaction of the 2022 Fixed Amount.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company calculated the fair value of the Fixed Annual Advisory Amounts using the period end volume weighted average closing share price of Ordinary Shares for ten consecutive trading days of $5.89 and used a Monte Carlo simulation model to calculate the fair value of the Variable Annual Advisory Amount. These approaches resulted in fair values of $103.5 million for the Variable Annual Advisory Amount and $69.4 million for the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount, of which 50% may be paid in cash and recorded as a liability and the remaining 50% would be settled in Ordinary Shares. While the entire instrument is subject to the fair value calculation described above, the amount classified and recorded as equity remains consistent while the amount classified and recorded as a liability is updated each period.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized a reduction in share-based compensation expense related to a decrease in fair value for liability-classified Advisory Amounts of $60.0 million and $84.3 million, respectively, primarily due to the decrease in stock price.

The Company leases real property from the sellers of First Response Fire Rescue, LLC, River City Fabrication, LLC, and H&S Transport, LLC (collectively, “Ironman”). Shannon Horn, who serves as our Business Director, North America Retardant and Services, was one of the sellers of Ironman. The Company paid $0.1 million, $0.1 million, $0.2 million and $0.2 million to lease real property from Ironman during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share represents income available to ordinary shareholders divided by the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares outstanding during the reported period. Diluted earnings per share is based upon the weighted-average number of Ordinary Shares outstanding during the period plus additional weighted-average potentially dilutive Ordinary Share equivalents during the period when the effect is dilutive.

Basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding and earnings per share were as follows (in thousands, except share and per share data):

As of June 30, 2023, 11.2 million PBNQSO and 17.6 million Ordinary Shares issuable under the Founder Advisory Agreement were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as the contingencies related to such instruments had not been met. In addition, 8.5 million Ordinary Shares equivalent warrants were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. As of June 30, 2022, 10.2 million PBNQSOs and 23.9 million Ordinary Shares issuable under the Founder Advisory Agreement were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as the contingencies related to such instruments had not been met.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

SEGMENT INFORMATION

SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company’s products and operations are managed and reported in two operating segments: Fire Safety and Specialty Products.

The Fire Safety segment manufactures and sells fire retardant and firefighting foam products, as well as specialized equipment and services typically offered in conjunction with these retardant and foam products.

The Specialty Products segment produces and sells P2S5 used in several end markets and applications, including lubricant additives, various agricultural applications, various mining applications, and emerging electric battery technologies. Within the lubricant additives end market, currently the Company’s largest end market application, P2S5 is primarily used in the production of a family of compounds called ZDDP, which is considered an essential component in the formulation of engine oils with its main function to provide anti-wear protection to engine components. P2S5 is also used in pesticide and mining chemicals applications.

Interest income, interest expense, other income (expense) and certain corporate operating expenses are neither allocated to the segments nor included in the measures of segment performance by the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”). The corporate category is not considered to be a segment. The CODM is the Company's CEO.

The Company’s CODM uses the segment net sales and Adjusted EBITDA to assess the ongoing performance of the Company’s business segments and to allocate resources. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted on a consistent basis for certain non-recurring or unusual items in a balanced manner and on a segment basis. These non-recurring or unusual items may include acquisition and integration related costs, management fees and other non-recurring items.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (Policies)

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that will be realized for the entire fiscal year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and accompanying notes thereto included in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report. The condensed consolidated financial statements for the prior periods include certain reclassifications that were made to conform to the current period presentation. Such reclassifications have no impact on previously reported condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of ConsolidationThe unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany transactions and balances.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates made by management in connection with the preparation of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the useful lives of long-lived and intangible assets, the allowance for doubtful accounts, the fair value of financial assets and liabilities, stock options, founder advisory fees, contingent earn-out liability and realizability of deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s significant accounting policies are consistent with those discussed in Note 2 - “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements” in its consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report, except for performance-based non-qualified stock options ("PBNQSO") granted during the three months ended March 31, 2023 (“Q1-2023 Option Grants”) and modifications to PBNQSO’s as of May 8, 2023.

For PBNQSO’s granted during the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recognized compensation costs related to PBNQSO’s granted to employees and non-employees based on the estimated fair value of the awards on the date of grant. The Company estimated the grant date fair value, and the resulting share-based compensation expense, using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company records forfeitures as they are incurred. The grant date fair value of the PBNQSO’s is expensed proportionately for each tranche over the applicable service period. The fair value of PBNQSO’s is recognized as compensation expense beginning at the time in which the performance conditions are deemed probable of achievement, over the remaining applicable service period. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model are as follows:

•Exercise price. The Company's Ordinary Share’s fair market value on the date of grant.

•Fair Market Value of Ordinary Shares. The grant date fair market value is the quoted market price of the Company's Ordinary Shares.

•Expected term. The expected term of stock options represents the period that the stock options are expected to remain outstanding and is based on vesting terms, exercise term and contractual lives of the options. The expected term is based on the simplified method and is estimated as the average of the weighted average vesting term and

the time to expiration as of the grant date. The simplified method was used due to the lack of historical exercise information.

•Expected volatility. As the Company does not have sufficient historical stock price information to meet the expected life of the stock option grants, it uses a blended volatility based on the Company’s short trading history and on the trading history from the common stock of a set of comparable publicly listed companies.

•Risk-free interest rate. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield with a maturity equal to the expected term of the stock options in effect at the time of grant.

•Dividend yield. The expected dividend is assumed to be zero as the Company has never paid dividends and has no current plan to pay any dividends on its Ordinary Shares.

As of May 8, 2023, to better account for seasonal fluctuations of the business, and to better align stock option performance with shareholder return, the Company modified certain terms in the PBNQSO agreements. One modification eliminated a term that provided discretion to the compensation committee to make certain adjustments on how the annual operational performance per diluted share (“AOP”) against the performance target will be measured. Such discretion prohibited the establishment of the grant date under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 718, “Compensation—Stock Compensation” (“Topic 718”). As of May 8, 2023, it was determined that a mutual understanding of the key terms and conditions of the PBNQSO’s has been ascertained and the grant date was therefore established for PBNQSO’s granted through December 31, 2022 (“Prior Grants”).

The modifications were determined to be a Type I (probable to probable) modification under Topic 718. As such, the Company performed a final fair value remeasurement under the original terms of Prior Grants using the Hull-White model and recognized the cumulative compensation cost to reflect the cumulative effect of re-measuring the compensation cost as of May 8, 2023. Subsequently, the Company calculated the modification date fair value for the PBNQSO’s based on the modified terms using (i) the Hull-White model that addresses the performance condition in the option agreements, and (ii) using the Monte Carlo simulation model that addresses the market condition in the option agreements. The modification did not result in any incremental share-based compensation expense for the Q1-2023 Option Grants.

The Company currently expects that the performance condition for the modified awards is probable of being achieved, accordingly, the fair value of the PBNQSO’s on the modification date, calculated using the Hull-White model and Black Scholes option-pricing model, as applicable, is recognized as compensation expense on a proportionate basis, for each tranche, over the remaining applicable service period. The Hull-White model requires us to make assumptions and judgments about the variables used in the calculation, including the sub-optimal exercise factor, drift rate, the volatility of our Ordinary Shares, risk-free interest rate, and expected dividends. Changes in assumptions made on the risk-free interest rate and expected volatility can materially impact the estimate of fair value and ultimately how much share-based compensation expense is recognized. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of modification and corresponds to remaining contractual term of the PBNQSO’s. As the Company does not have sufficient historical stock price information to meet the expected life of the stock option grants, it uses a blended volatility based on the Company’s short trading history and on the trading history from the common stock of a set of comparable publicly listed companies.

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Standards

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Standards

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases, which required lessees to recognize a right of use asset and a lease liability on their balance sheet for all leases, including operating leases, with a term of greater than 12 months. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, which added a transition option permitting entities to apply the provisions of the new standard at its adoption date instead of the earliest comparative period presented in the consolidated financial statements. The Company adopted Topic 842 as of January 1, 2022 at December 31, 2022, using the optional transition method provided by ASU 2018-11. Refer to Note 6, "Leases," for additional disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments and issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance within ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05 and ASU 2019-11. The amendments required an entity to replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current U.S. GAAP with a new model that uses a forward-looking expected loss method, which generally results in earlier recognition of allowances for losses. The Company adopted the standard as of January 1, 2022 at December 31,

2022. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements with the most significant impact being the increase in allowance for doubtful accounts related to its trade accounts receivable. The adoption adjustment was recorded to accumulated deficit in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, and in January 2021 issued ASU No. 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope. These ASUs provided temporary optional expedients and exceptions to existing guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to facilitate the market transition from existing reference rates, such as London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) which is being phased out, to alternate reference rates, such as Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). These standards are elective and are effective upon issuance for all entities through December 31, 2022. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-06, which deferred the sunset date of reference rate reform relief to December 31, 2024. The switch in the reference rates from LIBOR to SOFR, under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility (defined below), occurred as of June 30, 2023. The Company did not have any outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, accordingly, the switch in the reference rates from LIBOR to SOFR did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
