BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

2025 Business Acquisition

On October 20, 2025, we completed our business acquisition of W.F. Taylor Holdings, Inc. ("Taylor Adhesives"), a Georgia-based flooring adhesives business, for the purchase price of approximately $390 million. This acquisition expanded the high-value category portfolio in our Materials Group reportable segment.

We funded the Taylor Adhesives acquisition using cash and proceeds from our issuance of senior notes in September 2025.

The final allocations of purchase consideration to assets and liabilities are ongoing as we continue to evaluate certain balances, estimates and assumptions during the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). Our valuation of certain acquired assets and liabilities is currently pending finalization within the allowable time to complete our assessment.

The Taylor Adhesives acquisition was not material to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

2023 Business Acquisitions

On November 23, 2023, we completed our business acquisition of Silver Crystal Group ("Silver Crystal"), a Canada-based provider of sports apparel customization and application solutions across in-venue, direct-to-business and e-commerce platforms. On May 22, 2023, we completed our business acquisition of LG Group, Inc. ("Lion Brothers"), a Maryland-based designer and manufacturer of apparel brand embellishments. On March 6, 2023, we completed our business acquisition of Thermopatch, Inc. ("Thermopatch"), a New York-based manufacturer specializing in labeling, embellishments and transfers for the sports, industrial laundry, workwear and hospitality industries. These acquisitions expanded the product portfolio in our Solutions Group reportable segment. The acquisitions of Silver Crystal, Lion Brothers and Thermopatch are referred to collectively as the "2023 Acquisitions."

The aggregate purchase consideration, including purchase consideration payable, for the 2023 Acquisitions was approximately $231 million. We funded the 2023 Acquisitions using cash and commercial paper borrowings. In addition to the cash paid at closing, the sellers in one of these acquisitions are eligible for earn-out payments of up to $5 million, subject to the acquired company achieving certain post-acquisition performance targets. As of the acquisition date, we included an estimate of the fair value of these earn-out payments in the aggregate purchase consideration.

The 2023 Acquisitions were not material, individually or in the aggregate, to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
