Historically, we source a substantial portion of our products from manufacturers that are located in China. While China sourced products have been reduced in recent years since the expansion of Section 232 and 301 tariffs in 2019, China still represents the largest concentration of country of origin goods. Further, our exposure to other international sourcing has expanded. This concentration exposes us to risks associated with doing business globally, including changes in tariffs. The Office of the United States Trade Representative previously identified certain Chinese imported goods for additional tariffs to address China’s trade policies and practices. In earlyThroughout 2025, the current administration has signaled and implemented a number of additional measures under trade policy, including the potential imposition of blanket tariffs against goods sourced in Mexico and Canada under the Authority of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act ("IEEPA"), reciprocal tariffs on the import of goods from other countries that charge tariffs on imports of US produced goods and expanded tariffs on steel and aluminum imports, along with certain derivative products which contain these raw materials. These tariffs could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. Additionally, the current administration has canceled tariff exclusions that provided tariff relief to certain products and has yet to signal whether it will reinstate such exclusions or further alter existing trade agreements and terms between China and the U.S., including limiting trade with China, adjusting the current tariffs on imports from China and potentially imposing other restrictions on exports from China to the U.S. Consequently, it is possible that tariffs may be imposed on products imported from foreign countries, including China, or that our business will be affected by retaliatory trade measures taken by China or other countries in response to existing or future tariffs. This may cause us to raise prices or make changes to our operations, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

To integrate acquired businesses, we must implement our management information systems, operating systems and internal controls, and assimilate and manage the personnel of the acquired operations. The difficulties of this integration may be further complicated by geographic distances. The integration of acquired businesses, including Indoff,businesses may not be successful, may take longer or be more difficult or time-consuming or costly to accomplish than anticipated and could result in disruption to other parts of our business. These and other factors could harm our ability to achieve anticipated levels of profitability at acquired operations or realize other anticipated benefits of an acquisition, and could adversely affect our consolidated business and operating results and could result in disruption to other parts of our business.

Added

SG&A costs as a percentage of sales increased approximately 30 basis points in 2025 compared to 2024. Cost increases included total salary and related costs of approximately $20.4 million, of which approximately $9.7 million related to variable compensation with both selling commissions and bonus pool increasing compared to prior year and increased stock-based compensation expenses of approximately $4.6 million compared to prior year. Additional cost increases for net advertising spend of approximately $0.5 million was incurred offset by continued strong general and discretionary cost control. Prior year reflected a benefit associated with the reversal of executive stock compensation offset by approximately $0.7 million of recruitment costs associated with our CEO search.

Removed

SD&A costs as a percentage of sales increased approximately 160 basis points in 2024 compared to 2023. This increase reflects the impact of the planned investment in key sales and marketing growth initiatives, which generated negative leverage due to the soft customer demand environment, increased audit and consulting costs related to the remediation of certain IT general controls, increased healthcare costs, as well as, the full year's inclusion of Indoff costs. Cost increases include planned net marketing spend of approximately $10.5 million, which includes significant cost per click ("CPC") inflation, and a full year of inclusion of Indoff expenses of approximately $11.7 million compared to prior year. These increased Indoff cost inclusions related primarily to compensation and related costs of approximately $8.1 million, of which $5.1 million was for sales commissions and $1.1 million was for intangible asset amortization. Additional cost increases included total compensation and related costs of approximately $5.8 million and increased audit and consulting costs related to the remediation of certain IT general controls of approximately $2.0 million. The $5.8 million of increased compensation and related costs are attributed to approximately $3.2 million of increased salaries, approximately $0.5 million of increased variable compensation and approximately $1.6 million of increased healthcare costs offset by approximately $1.1 million in cost savings related to lower workers compensation claims in 2024. The Company also incurred approximately $0.7 million of recruitment costs associated with our CEO search.

Added

The Company also recorded foreign exchange income of approximately $0.1 million in 2025 and foreign exchange losses of approximately $0.5 million in 2024 and $0.2 million in 2023.2024.

Added

The Company recorded net tax expense in continuing operations for 2025 of $25.6 million, or 26.2% related to its operations in the U.S, Canada and India, including tax expense for certain U.S. states. The increased tax expense in 2025 compared to 2024 is attributable to the higher taxable income in 2025 and a higher effective tax rate due to an increase in non-deductible executive compensation.

Removed

The Company recorded net tax expense in continuing operations for 2023 of $24.5 million, or 25.7%. Tax expense from continuing operations was primarily the result of pretax income in the U.S. and India operations, including tax expense for certain U.S. states. Non-deductible expenses, including executive compensation, was approximately $2.5 million. The increase in the tax rate in 2023 as compared to 2022 is attributed to higher foreign taxable net income inclusion in the U.S. and additional state tax expense resulting from the acquisition of Indoff.

Our primary liquidity needs are to support working capital requirements in our business, funding recently declared and any future dividends, funding capital expenditures and inventory purchases, continuing investment in upgrading and expanding our technological capabilities specifically related to additional functionality and enhanced navigation of our new web platform, continuing investment in sales, marketing, merchandising, customer service and upgrading our distribution footprint and funding acquisitions. We rely upon operating cash flow and our credit facility to meet these needs. We currently believe that current cash on hand,hand and cash flow from operations and our availability under our credit facility will be sufficient to fund our working capital and other cash requirements for at least the next twelve months. We believe our current capital structure and cash resources are adequate for our internal growth initiatives. To the extent our growth initiatives expand, including major acquisitions, we would seek to raise additional capital. We believe that, if needed, we can access public or private funding alternatives to raise additional capital.

The credit agreement contains certain operating, financial and other covenants, including limits on annual levels of capital expenditures, availability tests related to payments of dividends and stock repurchases and fixed charge coverage tests related to acquisitions. The revolving credit agreement requires that a minimum level of availability be maintained. If such availability is not maintained, the Company will be required to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio (as defined). The borrowings under the agreement are subject to borrowing base limitations of up to 85% of eligible accounts receivable and the inventory advance rate computed as the lesser of 65% or 85% of the net orderly liquidation value (“NOLV”). Borrowings are secured by substantially all of the Borrower’s assets, as defined, including all accounts, accounts receivable, inventory and certain other assets, subject to limited exceptions, including the exclusion of certain foreign assets from the collateral. The interest rate under the amended and restated facility is computed at applicable market rates based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (“NYFRB”) or the Prime Rate, plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin varies based on borrowing base availability. As of December 31, 2024,2025, eligible collateral under the credit agreement was $125.0 million, total availability was $122.2$122.1 million, total outstanding letters of credit was $1.7$1.6 million, total excess availability was $120.5 million and there were no outstanding borrowings.

In the past we have engaged in opportunistic acquisitions, choosing to pay the purchase price in cash, and may do so in the future as favorable situations arise. However, a deep and prolonged period of reduced business spending could adversely impact our cash resources and force us to either forego future acquisition opportunities or to pay the purchase price using stock, debt or a combination of consideration which could have an adverse effect on our earnings. We believe that our cash balances and future cash flows from operations and availability under our credit facility will be sufficient to fund our working capital and other cash requirements for at least the next twelve months.

Business Combinations

Removed

We follow ASC 805, Business Combinations, for our acquisition accounting. ASC 805 provides a framework for entities to use in evaluating whether an integrated set of assets and activities should be accounted for as an acquisition of a business or a group of assets. If the transaction is an acquisition of a business then the fair value of the transaction is used to establish a new accounting basis of the acquired entity. The acquirer recognizes and measures the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their full fair values as of the date control is obtained.

Removed

On May 19, 2023 the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding equity interests of Indoff, a business-to-business direct marketer of material handling products, commercial interiors and business products with operations in North America, for approximately $72.6 million in cash. The transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and the fair value of the transaction was used to establish a new accounting basis of Indoff. The Company recognized and measured the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their full fair values as of the date of the acquisition.

Removed

The purchase price of Indoff was allocated between the net tangible assets acquired and the identified intangible assets, customer lists and trademarks, with the residual of the purchase price recorded as goodwill. Estimates were used in determining the fair value of the customer lists and trademarks. The significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of the acquired intangible assets include projected revenue growth rates, customer retention rates, weighted average cost of capital rate, pretax earnings and resulting discounted cash flows. These assumptions are forward-looking and could be impacted by future business activity and market conditions. If in the future our estimates are determined to be materially different than our actual experience and these differences result in us failing to achieve projected results, we could have a material impairment of our intangible assets and/or goodwill.

The credit agreement contains certain operating, financial and other covenants, including limits on annual levels of capital expenditures, availability tests related to payments of dividends and stock repurchases and fixed charge coverage tests related to acquisitions.

The borrowings under the agreement are subject to borrowing base limitations of up to 85% of eligible accounts receivable and the inventory advance rate computed as the lesser of 65% or 85% of the net orderly liquidation value (“NOLV”). Borrowings are secured by substantially all of the Borrower’s assets, as defined, including all accounts, accounts receivable, inventory and certain other assets, subject to limited exceptions, including the exclusion of certain foreign assets from the collateral. The interest rate under the amended and restated facility is computed at applicable market rates based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (“NYFRB”) or the Prime Rate, plus an applicable margin.
