“In addition, the Certificate of Designation for our Series D Preferred Stock contains provisions that may likewise impose significant operating and financial restrictions on our business, including, limiting our ability to amend our certificate of incorporation (including the Certificate of Designation) without obtaining the vote or consent of a majority of the holders of Series D Preferred Stock if such amendment would have a material adverse effect on the rights, preferences and privileges or powers of the Series D Preferred Stock, subject to certain exceptions. …”see in full comparison
see in full comparisonIn addition,Further, the covenants in our debt agreements require us to meet specified financial ratios and satisfy other financial condition tests. Our ability to meet those financial ratios and tests will depend on our ongoing financial and operating performance, which, in turn, will be subject to economic conditions and to financial, market, and competitive factors, many of which are beyond our control.A breach of any of these covenants could result in a default under one or more of our debt agreements and permit our lenders to cease making loans to us under our credit facility (as defined below) or to accelerate the maturity date of the indebtedness incurred thereunder. Furthermore, if we were unable to repay the amounts due and payable under our secured debt agreements, our secured lenders could proceed against the collateral granted to them to secure our borrowings. Such actions by the lenders could also cause cross defaults under our other debt agreements.
Our business activities are subject tosee in full comparisonvariousextensive federal, state, local, and foreign laws and regulations relating to pollutioncontrol andcontrol, protection of theenvironment.environment and occupational safety and health. These laws and regulations govern, among other things,discharges toairoremissions,water,wastewater discharges, the generation, storage,handling, and use of automotive hazardous materials, and thehandling and disposal of hazardous waste generated at ourfacilities.facilities, the investigation and remediation of contamination and maintaining a safe work-place environment. Under such laws and regulations, we are required to obtain permits from governmental authorities for some of our operations.If we violate or fail to comply with these laws, regulations, or permits, we could be fined or otherwise sanctioned by regulators. Under some environmental laws and regulations, we could also be held responsible for all the costs relating to any contamination at our past or present facilities and at third-party waste disposal sites. We maintain a compliance program to assist in preventing and, if necessary, correcting environmental problems.
“Outside the United States, an increasing number of laws, regulations, and industry standards may govern data privacy and security. For example, we may be subject to data protection and privacy laws in the European Union, Brazil, Mexico, and China, including the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (“EU GDPR”), Brazil’s General Data Protection Law (Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados Pessoais, or “LGPD”) (Law No. …”see in full comparison
“We currently source certain raw materials from international suppliers.

“In particular, severe ransomware attacks are becoming increasingly prevalent – particularly for companies like ours that are engaged manufacturing – and can lead to significant interruptions in our operations, loss of sensitive data and income, reputational harm, and diversion of funds. Extortion payments may alleviate the negative impact of a ransomware attack, but we may be unwilling or unable to make such payments due to, for example, applicable laws or regulations prohibiting such payments. …”see in full comparison

We have a complex network of suppliers, owned and leased manufacturing locations, co-manufacturing locations, distribution networks, and information systems that support our ability to consistently provide our products to our customers. Factors that are hard to predict or are beyond our control, such as supply chain disruptions, weather, raw material shortages, natural disasters, firesincluding hurricanes, tornadoes, and other adverse weather, other catastrophic events, such as disasters occurring at our customers’, suppliers’, co-manufacturers’ or explosions,our manufacturing facilities, political unrest, terrorism, generalized labor unrest, including strikes at our suppliers, customers or end-usersend-users, or public health crises could damage or disrupt our operations or our customers’, suppliers’, co-manufacturers’ or distributors’ operations. These disruptions may require additional resources to restore our supply chain or distribution network. If we cannot respond to disruptions in our operations, whether by finding alternative suppliers or replacing capacity at key manufacturing or distribution locations, or if we are unable to quickly repair any damage to our information, production, or supply systems, we may be late in delivering, or be unable to deliver, products to our customers and may also be unable to track orders, inventory, receivables, and payables. If that occurs, our customers’ confidence in us and long-term demand for our products could decline. Any of these events could materially and adversely affect our product sales, financial condition, and operating results.
We operatepurchase inraw materials from suppliers and sell products to customers outside the U.S. and are subject to several risks related to doing business internationally.
We obtain a substantial portion of our raw materials from overseas suppliers, actively participate in overseas manufacturing operations, and sell to a large number of international customers. During the year ended December 31, 2024,2025, sales to customers located outside of the U.S. accounted for 43%46% of our consolidated net sales.

•changes in tariff regulations,regulations and the imposition of trade restrictions or prohibitions, import tariffs or other duties or taxes, which may make our products more costly to export or import;
•fluctuations in interest rates and currency exchange rates, including the relative strength or weakness of the U.S. dollar against foreign currencies that are important to our business;
•the potential imposition of trade restrictions or prohibitions;
•the potential imposition of import tariffs or other duties or taxes;
•differing labor regulations;
•political uncertainty, instability, civil unrest, government controls over certain sectors and human rights and forced labor concerns in countries, including but not limited to, China, in which our suppliers, manufacturing operations, and customers are located; and
In addition, we could be adversely affected by violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the “FCPA”) and similar worldwide anti-bribery laws, as well as export controls, which may include International Traffic in Arms Regulation and Export Administration Regulations, and economic sanction laws.laws (collectively, “Trade Laws”). The FCPA and similar anti-bribery laws in other jurisdictions generally prohibit companies and their intermediaries from makingoffering, improperproviding, paymentsor authorizing the provision of anything of value directly or indirectly to non-U.S.government officials and other persons for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business.

We currently source certain raw materials from international suppliers. Import tariffs, taxes, customs duties and/or other trade regulations imposed by the U.S. government on foreign countries, or by foreign countries on the U.S., could significantly increase the prices we pay for raw materials. Changes in U.S. administrative policy have led, and may continue to lead, to significant increases in tariffs for imported goods among other possible changes, which has and may continue to result in foreign governments proposing or implementing their own retaliatory tariffs on goods imported from the U.S. Additionally, our customers’ businesses may be negatively impacted by import tariffs, taxes, customs duties and/or other trade regulations imposed by the U.S. government on foreign countries or by foreign countries on the U.S., which could, in turn, reduce our customers’ demand for the components that we manufacture for them. Any reduction in customer demand for our components as a result of such tariffs, taxes, customs duties and/or other trade regulations, could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or liquidity. We cannot predict whether, and to what extent, there may be changes to international trade agreements or whether quotas, duties, tariffs, exchange controls or other restrictions on our products will be changed or imposed. See “—Changes in U.S. administrative policy, including the imposition of or increases in tariffs, changes to existing trade agreements and any resulting changes in international trade relations, may have an adverse effect on our business.”
The prices we pay for raw materials used in our products may be impacted by tariffs. The tariffs initiated by the U.S. government in 2018 under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 resulted in increased metals prices in the United States. With respect to taxes, trade policies and tariffs there is uncertainty as the political landscape changes due to the recent U.S. presidential and congressional elections. Changes in U.S. administrative policy may lead to significant increases in tariffs for imported goods among other possible changes, which could strain international trade relations and increase the risk that foreign governments implement retaliatory tariffs on goods imported from the United States. Any widespread imposition of new or increased tariffs could increase the cost of, and reduce the demand for, our products, as well as result in increased inflationary pressure, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. We cannot predict whether, and to what extent, there may be changes to international trade agreements or whether quotas, duties, tariffs, exchange controls or other restrictions on our products will be changed or imposed.
In addition, an open conflict or war across any region could affect our ability to obtain raw materials. The military conflicts (including the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine and conflict in the Middle East), and related sanctions, export controls or other actions that may be initiated by nations could adversely affect our business and our supply chain or our business partners or customers in other countries. If we are unable to source our products from the countries where we wish to purchase them, either because of the occurrence or threat of wars or other conflicts, regulatory changes or for any other reason, or if the cost of doing so increases, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial conditioncondition, liquidity and results of operations. Disruptions in the supply of raw materials and components could temporarily impair our ability to manufacture our products for our customers or require us to pay higher prices to obtain these raw materials or components from other sources, which could have a material adverse effect on our businessbusiness, liquidity and our results of operations.
Approximately 46% of our revenues are denominated in foreign currencies, which may result in additional risk of fluctuating currency values and exchange rates and controls on currency exchange. Changes in the value of foreign currencies could increase our U.S. dollar costs for, or reduce our U.S. dollar revenues from, our foreign operations. Any increased costs or reduced revenues as a result of foreign currency fluctuations could affect our profits. In 2025, the U.S. dollar weakened against foreign currencies which unfavorably affected our revenue by $0.6 million. In contrast, a weakening of the U.S. dollar may beneficially affect our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
Increased prices or significant shortages of the commodities that we use in our businesses have had, and could continue to have, a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations or cash flows.
We purchase large quantities of steel, aluminum, alloy and other metal commodities, for the manufacture of our products. We also purchase significant quantities of copper and precious metals, including gold and silver used in the manufacture of certain of our products. Historically, prices for commodities and precious metals have fluctuated, however prices for certain metals, including, but not limited to, silver, have recently shown increased volatility. Significant price increases for these commodities and precious metals have, and could continue to have, an adverse effect on our liquidity and operating profits if we cannot timely mitigate the price increases by successfully sourcing lower cost commodities or precious metals or by passing the increased costs on to customers. Shortages or other disruptions in the supply of these commodities or precious metals could also delay sales or increase costs.
We face the challenge of accurately aligning our capacity and/or inventory levels with our demand.
We face periods when demand fluctuates significantly higher or lower than our normal operating levels, including variability driven by supply chain inconsistency. Accurately forecasting our expected volumes and appropriately adjusting our capacity and/or inventory levels are important factors in determining our results of operations and cash flows. We manage our capacity by adjusting our manufacturing workforce, capital expenditures and purchases from suppliers. In periods of weak demand, we may face under-utilized capacitycapacity, inventory and un-recoveredunrecovered overhead costs, while in periods of strong demand we may experience unplanned costscosts, be unable to secure sufficient raw materials and could fail to meet customer demand. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to adequately adjust our manufacturing capacity and/or inventory levels in response to significant changes in customer demand, which could harm our business. If we do not accurately align our manufacturing capabilities and/or inventory levels with demand it could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
We face substantial competition in the sale of components, system subassemblies, and finished devices in the vertical end markets into which we sell our products. Our competitors are continuously exploring and implementing improvements in technology and manufacturing processes in order to improve product quality, and our ability to remain competitive will depend, among other things, on whether we are able to keep pace with such quality improvements in a cost-effective manner. Due to this competitiveness, we may not be able to increase prices for our products to cover cost increases. In many cases we face pressure from our customers to reduce prices, which could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. In addition, our customers may choose to purchase products from one of our competitors rather than pay the prices we seek for our products, which could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
Our business depends upon good relations with our employees. Work stoppages, slowdowns or legal action by our employees represented by labor councils or unions, as applicable, may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Certain of our production employees working outside the United States are represented by labor councils or unions. Although we believe that employee and labor councils and/or unions relations are generally positive, there is no assurance that this will continue in the future, and problems or changes affecting employees in certain locations may affect relations with our employees at other locations. We may also be subject to labor union efforts to organize groups of our employees from time to time. These organizational efforts, if successful, decrease our operational flexibility, which could adversely affect our operating efficiency. In addition, our response to any organizational efforts could be perceived negatively and harm our business and reputation. Work stoppages may also be caused by the inability of national unions and the governments of countries in which we operate from reaching agreement and are outside of our control. Labor disputes, work stoppages or other disruptions in our production or in our supply chain could have a material adverse effect on our customer relations, our productivity, the profitability of our facilities and on our operations as a whole, resulting in an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
We and the third parties with whom we work are subject to numerous, evolving U.S. and foreign laws, regulations, and rules, contractual obligations, industry standards, policies and other obligations related to data privacy and security. Our (or the third parties with whom we work) actual or perceived failure to comply with such obligations could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and reputation.
We and the third parties with whom we work are, and may increasingly become, subject to various laws, rules, regulations, treaties, decisions and industry standards, as well as contractual obligations, relating to data privacy and security in the jurisdictions in which we operate.
In the United States, federal, state, and local governments have enacted numerous data privacy and security laws, including data breach notification laws, privacy laws, consumer protection laws, and similar laws (e.g., wiretapping laws). Rights provided by such laws may include the right to access, correct, or delete certain personal data, and to opt-out of certain data processing activities, such as targeted advertising, profiling, and automated decision-making. For example, the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”) applies to personal data of California residents, and requires businesses to provide specific disclosures in privacy notices and honor requests of such individuals to exercise certain privacy rights. The CCPA provides fines and allows private litigants affected by certain data breaches to recover significant statutory damages. The exercise of these rights may impact our business and ability to provide our products and services.
Outside the United States, an increasing number of laws, regulations, and industry standards may govern data privacy and security. For example, we may be subject to data protection and privacy laws in the European Union, Brazil, Mexico, and China, including the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (“EU GDPR”), Brazil’s General Data Protection Law (Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados Pessoais, or “LGPD”) (Law No. 13,709/2018), Mexico’s Federal Law on the Protection of Personal Data Held by Private Parties (Ley Federal de Protección de Datos Personales en Posesión de los Particulares), and China’s Personal Information Protection Law (“PIPL”), each of which imposes strict requirements on the processing of personal data. For example, under GDPR, companies may face temporary or definitive bans on data processing and other corrective actions; fines of up to the greater of 20 million Euros under the EU GDPR or 4% of annual global revenue; or private litigation brought by classes of data subjects.
In addition, we may be unable to transfer personal data from Europe and other jurisdictions to the United States or other countries due to data localization requirements or limitations on cross-border data flows. Europe and other jurisdictions have enacted laws requiring data to be localized or limiting the transfer of personal data to other countries. Although there are currently various mechanisms that may be used to transfer personal data from Europe to the United States in compliance with law, these mechanisms are subject to legal challenges, and there is no assurance that we can satisfy or rely on these measures.
In addition to data privacy and security laws, we are contractually subject to industry standards adopted by industry groups and may become subject to such obligations in the future. We are also bound by other contractual obligations related to data privacy and security, and our efforts to comply with such obligations may not be successful. We publish privacy policies and other statements concerning data privacy, and security. Regulators in the United States are increasingly scrutinizing these statements, and if these policies, materials or statements are found to be deficient, lacking in transparency, deceptive, unfair, misleading, or misrepresentative of our practices, we may be subject to investigation, enforcement actions by regulators or other adverse consequences. We or third parties with whom we work may at times fail (or be perceived to have failed) in efforts to comply with data privacy and security obligations, and we could face significant consequences, including but not limited to: government enforcement actions, litigation and mass arbitration demands, additional reporting requirements and/or oversight, bans or restrictions on processing personal data, or orders to destroy or not use personal data.
Any of these events could result in significant adverse consequences, including fines and penalties, the inability to transfer data and work with partners, vendors and other third parties, and injunctions against our processing or transferring of personal data necessary to operate our business, which could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, or financial condition.
A security breach or disruption to our information technology systemssystems, or those of the third parties with whom we work, could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and reputation.
We rely on proprietary and third-party information technology systems to process, transmit and store information and to manage or support our business processes. We store and maintain confidential financial and business information regarding us and persons with whom we do business on our information technology systems. We also collect and hold personallypersonal identifiable informationdata of our employees in connection with their employment. In addition, we engage third-party service providers that may collect and hold personallypersonal identifiable informationdata of our employees in connection with providing business services to us, including, but not limited to, web hosting, accounting, payroll and benefit services. The protection of the information technology systems on which we rely is critically important to us. We take steps, and generally require third-party service providers to take steps, to protect the security of the information maintained in our and our service providers’ information technology systems, including the use of systems, software, tools, and monitoring to provide security for processing, transmitting, and storing of the information. Despite our security measures and business continuity plans, we face risks associated with security breaches or disruptions to the information technology systems on which we rely, which could result from, among other incidents,incidents social-engineering attacks by(including hackers,through computerdeep viruses,fakes, which may be increasingly more difficult to identify as fake, and phishing attacks), malware (including “ransomware”), phishing attacks or breaches due to errors or malfeasance by employees, contractors, and others who have access to these systems. Our third-party service providers could also be the source of a cybersecurity attack on, or breach of, our information technology systems. Techniques used in cybersecurity attacks to obtain unauthorized access, disable or sabotage information technology systems change frequently, as data breaches and other cybersecurity events have become increasingly commonplace, including as a result of theadvanced intensificationpersistent threat intrusions), denial-of-service attacks, credential stuffing attacks, credential harvesting, malicious code (such as computer viruses and worms), ransomware attacks, supply-chain attacks, software bugs, server malfunctions, software or hardware failures, loss of state-sponsoreddata cybersecurityor other information technology assets, adware, telecommunications failures, personnel misconduct or error, attacks duringenhanced periodsor offacilitated geopoliticalby conflict.AI, and other similar threats.
Such threats are prevalent and continue to rise, are increasingly difficult to detect, and come from a variety of sources, including traditional computer “hackers,” threat actors, “hacktivists,” organized criminal threat actors, personnel (such as through theft or misuse), sophisticated nation states, and nation-state-supported actors.
In particular, severe ransomware attacks are becoming increasingly prevalent – particularly for companies like ours that are engaged manufacturing – and can lead to significant interruptions in our operations, loss of sensitive data and income, reputational harm, and diversion of funds. Extortion payments may alleviate the negative impact of a ransomware attack, but we may be unwilling or unable to make such payments due to, for example, applicable laws or regulations prohibiting such payments. Future or past business transactions (such as acquisitions or integrations) could expose us to additional cybersecurity risks and vulnerabilities, as our systems could be negatively affected by vulnerabilities present in acquired or integrated entities’ systems and technologies. Furthermore, we may discover security issues that were not found during due diligence of such acquired or integrated entities, and it may be difficult to integrate companies into our information technology environment and security program. Our third-party service providers could also be the source of a cybersecurity attack on, or breach of, our information technology systems. Techniques used in cybersecurity attacks to obtain unauthorized access, disable or sabotage information technology systems change frequently, as data breaches and other cybersecurity events have become increasingly commonplace, including as a result of the intensification of state-sponsored cybersecurity attacks during periods of geopolitical conflict.
The security measures put in place by us and our service providers cannot provide absolute security and there can be no assurance that we or our service providers will not suffer a data security incident in the future, that unauthorized parties will not gain access to sensitive information stored on our or our service providers’ systems, that such access will not, whether temporarily or permanently, impact, interfere with, or interrupt our operations, or that any such incident will be discovered in a timely manner. Even the most well-protected information, networks, systems, and facilities remain potentially vulnerable as the techniques used in such attempted security breaches evolve and generally are not recognized until launched against a target, and in some cases are designed to not be detected and, in fact, may not be detected. In addition, third-party information technology providers may not provide us with fixes or updates to hardware or software in a manner as to avoid an unauthorized loss or disclosure or to address a known vulnerability, which may subject us to known threats or downtime as a result of those delays. Accordingly, we and our service providers may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate security barriers or other preventative measures. Further, we may be required to expend significant additional resources to continue to enhance information security measures and internal processes and procedures or to investigate and remediate any information security vulnerabilities.
Certain data privacy and security obligations have required us to implement and maintain specific security measures or industry-standard or reasonable security measures to protect our information technology systems and sensitive information. Applicable data privacy and security obligations may require us, or we may voluntarily choose, to notify relevant stakeholders, including affected individuals, customers, regulators, and investors, of security incidents, or to take other actions, such as providing credit monitoring and identity theft protection services. Such disclosures and related actions can be costly, and the disclosure or the failure to comply with such applicable requirements could lead to adverse consequences. Our contracts may not contain limitations of liability, and even where they do, there can be no assurance that limitations of liability in our contracts are sufficient to protect us from liabilities, damages, or claims related to our data privacy and security obligations. We cannot be sure that our insurance coverage will be adequate or sufficient to protect us from or to mitigate liabilities arising out of our privacy and security practices, that such coverage will continue to be available on commercially reasonable terms or at all, or that such coverage will pay future claims. In addition to experiencing a security incident, third parties may gather, collect, or infer sensitive information about us from public sources, data brokers, or other means that reveals competitively sensitive details about our organization and could be used to undermine our competitive advantage or market position.
A data security incident could compromise our or our service providers’ information technology systems, and the information stored by us or our service providers, including personally identifiable information of employees, could be accessed, misused, publicly disclosed, corrupted, lost, or stolen. Any failure to prevent a data breach or a security failure of our or our service providers’ information technology systems could interrupt our operations, result in downtime, divert our planned efforts and resources from other projects, damage our reputation and brand, damage our competitive position,position or subject us to liability claims or regulatory penalties under lawsapplicable protecting the privacy of personal information. Similarly, if our third-party service providers fail to use adequate security or data protection processes, or use personal information in an unpermitted or improper manner, we may be liable for certain losses and it may damage our reputation.law. Various events described above have occurred in the past and may occur in the future. Although impacts of past events have been immaterial, the impacts of such events in the future may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations.
Pandemics, epidemics or disease outbreaks in the U.S. or globally have disrupted, and may in the future disrupt, our business, which could materially affect our results of financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Any such events may adversely impact our global supply chain and global manufacturing operations and cause us to again suspend our operations in countries and states where we operate. In particular, we have experienced, and could continue to experience, among other things: (1) global supply disruptions, especially in China; (2) labor disruptions; (3) an inability to manufacture; (4) an inability to sell and distribute our products to our customers; (5) a decline in customer demand during and following the pandemic, whether as a result of our inability to satisfy customer demand in a timely manner due to raw material shortages, supply chain disruptions, inflationary cost pressures, or work stoppages experienced by one or more of our customers; and (6) an impaired ability to access credit and the capital markets, especially in light of the risingfluctuating interest rates. Any new pandemic or other public health crises, or future public health crises, could have a material impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows going forward. To the extent any new pandemic or other public health crises adversely affects our business, financial condition, results of operationforward and cash flows, it may also have the effect of heightening other risks and uncertainties disclosed below.
Risks associated with climate change are subject to increasingongoing societal, regulatory and political focus in the U.S. and globally. Shifts in weather patterns caused by climate change could increase the frequency, severity, or duration of certain adverse weather conditions and natural disasters, such as hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, wildfires, droughts, extreme temperatures, or flooding, which could result in more significant business and supply chain interruptions, damage to our products and facilities as well as the infrastructure of our customers, reduced workforce availability, increased costs of raw materials and components, increased liabilities, and decreased revenues than what we have experienced in the past from such events. In addition, increased public concern over climate change could result in new legal or regulatory requirements designed to mitigate the effects of climate change, which could include the adoption of more stringent environmental laws and regulations or stricter enforcement of existing laws and regulations. Such developments could result in increased compliance costs and adverse impacts on raw material sourcing, manufacturing operations, and the distribution of our products, which could adversely affect our business and operations.
We rely upon patents, copyrights, trademarks, and trade secret laws to establish and maintain its proprietary rights for various trade names .names. There can be no assurance that any of our patents, trademarks or other intellectual property rights will not be challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or that any rights granted thereunder will provide competitive advantages to us. In addition, there can be no assurance that patents will be issued from pending patent applications filed by us or that claims allowed on any future patents will be sufficiently broad to protect us from infringement. Further, the laws of some foreign countries may not permit the protection of our proprietary rights to the same extent as do the laws of the U.S.
We are subject to extensive federal, state, local, and foreign environmental, health, and safety laws and regulations concerning matters such as air emissions, wastewater discharges, solid and hazardous waste handling, and disposal and the investigation and remediation of contamination. The risks of substantial costs, liabilities, and limitations on our operations related to compliance with these laws and regulations are an inherent part of our business, and future conditions may develop, arise or be discovered that create substantial environmental compliance or remediation liabilities and costs.
Our business activities are subject to variousextensive federal, state, local, and foreign laws and regulations relating to pollution control andcontrol, protection of the environment.environment and occupational safety and health. These laws and regulations govern, among other things, discharges to air oremissions, water,wastewater discharges, the generation, storage, handling, and use of automotive hazardous materials, and the handling and disposal of hazardous waste generated at our facilities.facilities, the investigation and remediation of contamination and maintaining a safe work-place environment. Under such laws and regulations, we are required to obtain permits from governmental authorities for some of our operations. If we violate or fail to comply with these laws, regulations, or permits, we could be fined or otherwise sanctioned by regulators. Under some environmental laws and regulations, we could also be held responsible for all the costs relating to any contamination at our past or present facilities and at third-party waste disposal sites. We maintain a compliance program to assist in preventing and, if necessary, correcting environmental problems.
The risks of substantial costs, liabilities and limitations on our operations related to compliance with these laws and regulations are an inherent part of our business, and future conditions may develop, arise or be discovered that create substantial compliance or remediation liabilities and costs. Compliance with environmental, health and safety legislation and regulatory requirements may prove to be more limiting and costly than we anticipate. We maintain a compliance program to assist in preventing and, if necessary, correcting environmental problems. To date, we have committed, and expect to continue to make, significant expenditures in our efforts to achieve and maintain compliance with these requirements at our facilities. If we violate or fail to comply with these laws, regulations or permits, we could be fined or otherwise sanctioned by regulators. Under some environmental laws and regulations, we could also be held responsible for all the costs relating to any contamination at our past or present facilities and at third-party waste disposal sites.
Compliance with environmental, health, and safety legislation and regulatory requirements may prove to be more limiting and costly than we anticipate. To date, we have committed significant expenditures in our efforts to achieve and maintain compliance with these requirements at our facilities, and we expect that we will continue to make significant expenditures related to such compliance in the future. From time to time, we may be subject to legal proceedings or investigations brought by private parties or governmental authorities with respect to environmentalenvironmental, occupational health and safety matters, including matters involving alleged noncompliance with or liability under environmental, health and safety laws, such as Occupational and Safety Health Authority standards, property damage or personal injury.injury Newor fatality. Additionally, new laws and regulations, including those which may relate to emissions of greenhouse gases, stricter enforcement of existing laws and regulations, the discovery of previously unknown contamination or the imposition of new clean-up requirements could require us to incur costs or become the basis for new or increased liabilities that could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
SomeAdditionally, some of the medical devices that we produce may be subject to regulation by numerous government agencies, including the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and comparable agencies outside the U.S. To varying degrees, each of these agencies requires us to comply with laws and regulations governing the development, testing, manufacturing, labeling, marketing and distribution of medical devices. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to obtain marketing clearance for our new products or enhancements or modifications to existing products. If such approval is obtained, it may:
Changes in U.S. administrative policy, including the imposition of or increases in tariffs, changes to existing trade agreements and any resulting changes in international trade relations, may have an adverse effect on our business.
Changes in laws or policies governing the terms of trade, and in particular increased trade restrictions, tariffs or taxes on imports from countries where our customers, suppliers or we manufacture products, such as Mexico and China, could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial results. For example, the U.S. government has recently taken actions or made proposals that are intended to address trade imbalances or trade practices, specifically with China, among other countries, which include encouraging increased production in the U.S. These proposals could result in increased customs duties and the renegotiation of some U.S. trade agreements. Changes in U.S. and foreign governments’ trade policies have resulted and may continue to result in tariffs on imports into, and exports from, the U.S. In the past, the U.S. imposed tariffs on imports from several countries, including China, Canada, the European Union, India and Mexico. In response, China, Canada, the European Union, India and Mexico have proposed or implemented their own tariffs on certain exports from the U.S. into those countries. Because we, our customers, and our suppliers conduct business in China and Mexico, potential reductions in trade with China and Mexico and diminished relationships between China and Mexico and the U.S., as well as the continued escalation of tariffs, could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
The impact of these tariffs is subject to a number of factors, including the effective date and duration of such tariffs, changes in the amount, scope and nature of the tariffs in the future, any retaliatory responses to such actions that the target countries may take and any mitigating actions that may become available. We can provide no assurance that any strategies we implement to mitigate the impact of such tariffs or other trade actions will be successful. A trade war or other significant changes in trade regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
If renegotiations of existing tariffs are unsuccessful or additional tariffs or trade restrictions are implemented by the U.S. or other countries in connection with a global trade war, the resulting escalation of trade tensions could have a material adverse effect on world trade and the global economy. Even in the absence of further tariffs or trade restrictions, the related uncertainty and the market's fear of an economic slowdown could lead to a decrease in consumer spending, and we may experience lower net sales than expected. Reduced net sales may result in reduced operating cash flows if we are not able to appropriately manage inventory levels or leverage expenses.
Changes in U.S. or foreign tax laws, or an extended government shutdown, could have a material adverse effect on our business, cash flow, results of operations and financial condition.
We are subject to taxes in a variety of U.S. and foreign jurisdictions, including Mexico. Significant judgment is required to determine our consolidated income tax provision and related liabilities. Our effective tax rate could be affected by various factors, such as changes in the mix of earnings in jurisdictions with varying statutory tax rates, changes in the recognition and/or release of valuation allowances, changes in the amount of unrecognized tax benefits, our ability to operate our business in a manner consistent with our corporate structure and intercompany arrangements, and changes to tax rates or tax laws, regulations, or accounting principles (or interpretations thereof). The taxing authorities of the jurisdictions in which we operate may disagree with our determinations as to the income and expenses attributable to specific jurisdictions. If such a disagreement were to occur, and our position was not sustained, we could be required to pay additional taxes, interest, and penalties, which could result in one-time tax charges, higher effective tax rates, reduced cash flows, and lower overall profitability of our operations.
We currently have a $12.9 million tax refund receivable, which is being processed for refund at the Internal Revenue Service based on provisions in the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act. Significant delays in receiving our tax refund could adversely impact us.
The U.S. and foreign tax laws and regulations, as well as the administrative interpretations of those laws and regulations, are constantly under review and may be changed at any time, possibly with retroactive effect. For instance, the recently enacted legislation commonly referred to as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (along with prior U.S. federal tax reform legislation) has resulted in significant changes to the taxation of business entities, including, among other changes, imposition of minimum taxes and excise taxes, changes to the taxation of income derived from international operations, changes in the deduction and amortization of research and development expenditures, and limitations on the deductibility of business interest. Future guidance from the Internal Revenue Service and other tax authorities with respect to these and other legislation may affect us, and certain aspects of such legislation could be repealed or modified in future legislation or sunset in future years. No assurance can be given as to whether, when, or in what form changes to the applicable tax laws applicable to us may be enacted. Changes in tax laws or interpretations of existing tax laws could materially affect our business, cash flow, results of operations, and financial condition.
Our ability to use our Net Operating Loss carryforwards and certain other tax attributes may be limited.
As of December 31, 2025, we had federal and tax effected state Net Operating Loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of approximately $47.9 million and $16.7 million, respectively. Federal NOL carryforwards generated in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017, may be carried forward indefinitely but are permitted to be used in any taxable year to offset only up to 80% of taxable income in such taxable year, if any. State utilization and carryforward limitations vary by state. There also may be periods during which the use of state NOL carryforwards is suspended or otherwise limited, which could accelerate or permanently increase state taxes owed.
Under Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and corresponding provisions of state law, if a corporation undergoes an “ownership change,” which generally is defined as a greater than 50% change, by value, in its equity ownership over a three-year period, the corporation’s ability to use its pre-change NOL carryforwards and certain other tax attributes to offset its post-change income or taxes may be limited. We may have experienced ownership changes in the past, and we may experience ownership changes as a result of subsequent shifts in our stock ownership, some of which may be outside of our control. If our ability to use our NOL carryforwards and certain other tax attributes is materially limited by any ownership change, it could harm our future results of operations by effectively increasing our future tax obligations.
The Company has been, and could in the future be, subject to actions or requests from activist stockholders, and such activism could adversely affect the strategic direction and business results of the Company.
The Company has been, and may again be, subject to actions and requests from activist stockholders. We value constructive input from investors and regularly engage in dialogue with our stockholders. The Board of Directors (the “Board”) and management team are committed to acting in the best interests of all of our stockholders. There can be no assurance, however, that the actions taken by the Board and management in seeking to maintain constructive engagement with our stockholders will be successful, and we may be subject to formal or informal actions or requests from stockholders or others that could adversely affect the strategic direction or business results of the Company. Uncertainties related to, or the results of, any actions or requests by activist stockholders could cause our stock price to experience periods of volatility. We cannot predict, and no assurances can be given as to, the outcome or timing of any matters relating to actions or requests by activist stockholders or the ultimate impact on our business, liquidity, financial condition, results of operations, or strategy.
Increasing scrutiny and evolving expectations with respect to our environmental, social and governance practices may impose additional costs on us or expose us to new or additional risks.
In addition to the increased legislative and regulatory attention to climate change, customer, investor, and employee expectations in ESG have been rapidly evolving and increasing. While we have been committed to continuous improvements to our product portfolio to meet anticipated regulatory standard levels, if customers, regulators or investors demand we increase our greenhouse gas emission or renewable energy disclosures or our ESG initiatives, we may have to implement additional reporting standards and reporting requirements. If we fail to meet customer, investor, or employee expectations, we may be unable to attract or retain our consumer base or talent. Further, there can be no assurance that our commitments will be successful, that our products will be accepted by the market, that proposed regulation or deregulation will not have a negative competitive impact or that economic returns will reflect our investments in new product development.
The standards by which ESG efforts and related matters are measured are developing and evolving, and we could be criticized for the scope of our initiatives and goals, or lack thereof. If we fail to comply with the evolving customer or investor or employee expectations and standards, or if we are perceived to have failed to adequately respond to such expectations and standards, we may suffer from reputational damage, which could have an adverse impact on our business or financial condition.

The following paragraphs describe several important factors that have influenced, and we expect will continue to influence our results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025, that management believes are important to provide an understanding of the business and results of operations or that may influence operations in the future.
We continue to monitor the ongoing impacts of current macroeconomic and geopolitical events, including changing conditions from global trade negotiations and tariffs, inflationary cost pressures on metal, raw materials, and other manufacturing inputs, elevated interest rates, supply chain disruptions, and ongoing military conflicts.
Global trade negotiations continue to create volatility in the marketplace. New trade restrictions and/or increases in tariffs could have a material impact on our business, financial condition, or results of operations by increasing our input costs and decreasing demand, although the nature of those trade restrictions and tariffs remains unclear. Additionally, tariffs may increase the risk for elevated inflation more generally, which may drive an increase in other input costs and have made it more difficult to procure precious metals. In particular, prices for commodities and certain metals, including, but not limited to, gold, silver and copper, have recently shown increased volatility. Significant price increases for these commodities and precious metals have, and could continue to have, an adverse effect on our liquidity and operating profits if we cannot timely mitigate the price increases by successfully sourcing lower cost commodities or precious metals or by passing the increased costs on to customers. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Increased prices or significant shortages of the commodities that we use in our businesses have had, and could continue to have, a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations or cash flows.”
We cannot predict the future impact on our end-markets or input costs, including tariffs and their potential implications and ramifications, nor our ability to recover all cost increases, including the cost of raw materials, through pricing or the timing of such recoveries.
During the second half of 2024, we identified two manufacturing facilities to close due to volume rationalization which will reduce costs and improve operational efficiency. During the first quarter of 2025, we ceased production activities at our Mobile Solutions plants in Juarez, Mexico and Dowagiac, Michigan. Additionally, we continue to evaluate our global footprint, which may result in further consolidation actions to further improve our overall cost structure.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, a customer in our Mobile Solutions segment represented 11% of consolidated net sales. During the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, no single customer accounted for 10% or more of consolidated net sales.
Year Ended December 31, 2025 compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2024
The following paragraphs describe factors that have influenced results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2024, that management believes are important to provide an understanding of the business and results of operations or that may influence operations in the future.
We continue to monitor the ongoing impacts of current macroeconomic and geopolitical events, including changing conditions from ongoing military conflicts, inflationary cost pressures, elevated interest rates, supply chain disruptions, and labor shortages and disruptions.
Ongoing military conflicts continue to create volatility in global financial and energy markets, creating energy and supply chain shortages, which has added to the inflationary pressures experienced by the global economy. We continue to actively work with our suppliers to minimize impacts of supply shortages on our manufacturing capabilities. Although our business has not been materially impacted by these ongoing military conflicts as of the date of this filing, we cannot reasonably predict the extent to which our operations, or those of our customers or suppliers, will be impacted in the future, or the ways in which the conflicts may impact our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
The U.S. economy has experienced inflationary increases and elevated interest rates, as well as supply issues in materials, services, and labor due to economic policy and military conflicts. We cannot predict the future impact on our end-markets or input costs nor our ability to recover cost increases through pricing.
We have taken specific steps to consolidate our footprint by identifying less profitable end markets and focusing our strategic growth initiatives in markets where we believe we will be able to maximize profitability. During the second half of 2024, we identified two manufacturing facilities to close due to volume rationalization which will reduce costs and improve operational efficiency. In January 2025, we ceased production activities at our Mobile Solutions plant in Juarez, Mexico. We plan to stop production activity at our Mobile Solutions plant in Dowagiac, Michigan by the end of the first quarter of 2025. Additionally, we continue to evaluate our global footprint, which may result in further consolidation actions to further improve our overall cost structure.
During the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, no single customer accounted for 10% or more of consolidated net sales.

Other expense (income), net changed favorably by $15.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily due to the $7.2 million gain on sale of the Lubbock operations and a $10.8 million decrease in noncash derivative mark-to-market losses, partially offset by unfavorable foreign exchange effects associated with intercompany borrowings.
Provision for Income Taxes. Our effective tax rate was (7.9)% for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to (5.3)% for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to (4.3)% for the year ended December 31, 2023.2024. Our effective tax rate for the years ended December 31, 20242025 and 20232024 were unfavorably impacted by the accrual of tax on non-permanently reinvested unremitted earnings of foreign subsidiaries and by the limitation on the amount of tax benefit recorded for loss carryforwards in certain jurisdictions where we believe it is more likely than not that a portion of the future tax benefit may not be realized. The effective tax rate for the years ended December 31, 20242025 and 20232024 were favorably impacted by the recording of interest income on the Company’sour federal income tax refund requested as a result of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act,Act (the “CARES Act”), as well as the recording of a benefit of a state refund claim.claim in 2024.

Cash provided by operations was $5.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared with $11.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decline was due to a decrease in other operating liabilities, an increase in inventory and timing of dividend received from the joint venture. This decrease was partially offset by lower accounts receivable and higher accounts payable.
Cash provided by operations was $11.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared with $29.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The decline was due to decreases in accounts receivable and inventory during 2023 compared with a decrease in accounts payable during 2024. These declines were partially offset by a larger dividend received from the JV in 2024.
Cash used in investing activities was $11.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared with cash used in investing activities of $1.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared with cash used in investing activities of $17.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.2024.

Term Loan Facility
On April 16, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), we entered into a Term Loan Credit Agreement by and among the Company, the lenders from time to time party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”) and Alter Domus (US) LLC, as administrative agent (the “Term Loan Agent”) for the Lenders (the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”). The Term Loan Credit Agreement establishes a new $128.0 million senior secured Term Loan Facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) consisting of (i) a $118.0 million of term loan funded in full on the Closing Date (the “Closing Date Term Loans”) and (ii) $10.0 million of delayed draw term loan commitments (any delayed draw term loans funded thereunder, the “Delayed Draw Term Loans”, and together, with the Closing Date Term Loans, the “Term Loans”). As of December 31, 2025, we had $11.4 million of outstanding letters of credit issued under the ABL Facility and $26.7 million in undrawn commitments, as well as $10.0 million in delayed draw term loan commitments, which was fully drawn in January 2026. The Term Loans mature on April 16, 2030. We used the proceeds from the Closing Date Term Loan to repay all of our outstanding obligations under our outstanding term loan facility (see Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
Under the Term Loan Credit Agreement, interest rates on the Term Loans are determined based on the type of Term Loan, the length of the interest period, and our Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Term Loan Credit Agreement). The Term Loans currently bear interest at either: 1) one-month, three-month, or six-month term secured overnight finance rate (“SOFR”) with a credit spread adjustment, subject to a 2.00% floor, plus an applicable margin ranging from 8.75% to 9.75% based on our Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio (as defined therein) (“Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans”); or 2) the greater of various benchmark rates, with certain adjustments, plus an applicable margin ranging from 7.75% to 8.75% based on our Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio (“Base Rate Loans”). For interest payments due before April 16, 2027, we may elect to pay a portion of interest in-kind (“PIK Election”), subject to a minimum cash interest of 5.25% for Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans and 4.25% for Base Rate Loans. The applicable margin increases by 0.50% on borrowings to which the PIK Election is made. At December 31, 2025, the Term Loans bore interest, including amounts we have elected to pay as PIK interest, based on one-month Adjusted Term SOFR, at 13.57%.

Series D Perpetual Preferred Stock Redemption and Exchange
On August 5, 2026, we entered into an Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with NHTV Holdings, LP (the “Holder”), the holder of the Series D Preferred Stock issued pursuant to the Certificate of Designation of Series D Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”). Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, on August 5, 2026, we exchanged 9,850 shares of Series D Preferred Stock for 5,500,000 newly issued shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock” and the transaction, the “Exchange”). The Exchange was conditioned upon the concurrent consummation of the Redemption (defined below).
In addition, pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Holder agreed to reduce (a) the Cash Dividend Rate (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) to an amount equal to 10.0% per annum of the then current Liquidation Preference (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) and (b) the Preference Accrual Rate (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) to an amount equal to 10.0% per annum of the then current Liquidation Preference, in each case through August 5, 2027. After August 5, 2027, the Cash Dividend Rate and the Preference Accrual Rate will revert to the amounts as calculated in accordance with the Certificate of Designation. The Holder also agreed that in the event we redeem in full for cash all of the then-outstanding Series D Preferred Stock from the Holder in accordance with the Certificate of Designation and pay the Holder the aggregate Redemption Price (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) otherwise payable in respect thereof on or before December 31, 2026 (the “Final Redemption”), the aggregate Redemption Price payable by us in respect of the Final Redemption Price will be reduced by $5.0 million.
On August 5, 2026, the Company redeemed 36,750 shares of Series D Preferred Stock pursuant to the optional redemption provision of the Certificate of Designation for an aggregate redemption price of $70.0 million (the “Redemption”).

The rate for the three months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 was unfavorably impacted due to the accrual of tax on non-permanently reinvested unremitted earnings of foreign subsidiaries and by the limitation of the amount of tax benefit recorded for losses in certain jurisdictions where we believe it is more likely than not that a future tax benefit may not be realized.

Selling, General, and Administrative Expense. Selling, general, and administrative expense increased by $2.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to higher compensation costs, consulting fees, and legal fees. The remaining impact was primarily driven by unfavorable foreign exchange and inflationary effects.
Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased by $0.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to the impact of capital expenditures placed in service in the current and prior year.

Loss from operations increased by $0.2 million or 5.9% during the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily related to unfavorable raw material price increases and an unfavorable plant mix.

POWER SOLUTIONS
Net sales increased by $29.5 million, or 33.5%, during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to higher selling prices, reflecting the pass-through of increased raw material costs to customers and higher volumes.

ChangesSources inand FinancialUses Conditionof fromCash December 31, 2025 to MarchJune 31,30, 2026
Cash provided by operations was $11.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to cash used in operations of $4.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The favorable change is primarily due to a $12.7 million collection of a tax refund claim and other favorable operating impacts.
Cash used in investing activities was $8.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with $7.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The higher use of cash is primarily due to additional purchases of property, plant and equipment.
Cash provided by financing activities decreased by $1.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with the same period in 2025. The decrease is primarily due to net repayments made against our asset backed credit facilities, offset by the $10.0 million of proceeds from the Delayed Draw Term Loan.
As of June 30, 2026, our primary sources of liquidity were cash and cash equivalents, availability under our ABL Facility, and cash flows from operating activities. On July 2, 2026, we received net proceeds of approximately $70.4 million from the closing of the Private Placement. On August 5, 2026, we completed the Redemption utilizing cash received in the Private Placement and completed the Exchange. We believe that the execution of these transactions will help support our long-term liquidity.
Based on our current cash position, anticipated cash flows from operating activities, and anticipated borrowing capacity under the ABL Facility, we believe we will have sufficient liquidity to fund our operations, capital expenditures, and debt service requirements for the next 12 months. Our ability to meet these requirements is subject to the factors described in Item 1A, "Risk Factors," in our 2025 Annual Report, including the level and timing of future cash flows, prevailing economic conditions, and restrictions under our credit agreements.
As of June 30, 2026, we had total available liquidity of:
From December 31, 2025 to March 31, 2026, total assets increased by $12.6 million, primarily due to increases in accounts receivable, inventories and prepaid assets. The increases are partially offset by decreases in cash and cash equivalents, property, plant and equipment, right-of-use assets, and intangible assets.
From December 31, 2025 to March 31, 2026, total liabilities increased by $15.1 million, primarily due to increases in accrued salaries, wages and benefits, other current liabilities and long-term debt due to $10.0 million of proceeds from the Delayed Draw Term Loan (as described below). These increases were partially offset by a decrease in operating lease liabilities and other non-current liabilities.
Working capital, which consists of current assets less current liabilities, increased by $9.4 million, from December 31, 2025 to March 31, 2026. The change was primarily due to an increase in accounts receivable offset by increases in accounts payable, other current liabilities and accrued salaries, wages, and benefits.
Cash used in operations was $8.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared with $3.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The unfavorable change was primarily due to an increase in accounts receivable, inventories, and other operating assets, partially offset by change in other operating liabilities.
Cash used in investing activities decreased by $0.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared with the three months ended March 31, 2025, due to a decrease in purchases of property, plant and equipment in 2026.
