The Loan Documents contain certain financial covenants and other restrictions that we are obligated to maintain. If we violate any of these covenants and are unable to timely cure such violation or obtain a waiver from our lenders, we would be in default under the applicable Loan Documents. These covenants include restrictions that limit our ability, among other things, to incur certain additional indebtedness; pay dividends and repurchase stock; make certain investments and other payments; enter into certain mergers or consolidations; undergo certain changes of control of our Company or Board of Directors; engage in sale and leaseback transactions and transactions with affiliates; and encumber and dispose ofsee in full comparisonassets.assets that secure the Credit Facility and Term Loan Facility.

These risk factors may be important to understanding any statement in this Annual Report on Form 10-K or elsewhere. The following information should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes in Part II, Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” and Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of this Report.
Our business has been, and continues to bebe, adversely impacted by inflationary pressures and potential recession concerns.
We are exposed to inflationary pressures affecting our costs and demand for the products we sell. In recent years, our business has been affected by global supply chain constraints and unfavorable changes in economic or political conditions in the countries and markets where we operate, resulting in heightened inflationary cost pressures. Such inflationary pressures have also been and could continue to be exacerbated by higher oil prices, geopolitical turmoil (including the ongoing conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and in Israel, Palestine and surrounding areas), increased logistics costs and economic policy actions and could lead to a recessionary environment. Additionally, rapid changes in U.S. trade policy, such as the imposition of additional tariffs and trade barriers, as well as potential retaliatory measures taken by other governments, could increase the costs of our products, product components and raw materials, and adversely affect our results of operations. FurtherFurther, adverse changes in interest rates have led to and could lead to further increases in our borrowing costs over time.
Inflationary pressures can also have a negative impact on demand for the products we sell. Reduced or delayed discretionary spending by consumers, specifically for consumer electronic goods, in response to inflationary pressures has reduced and could continue to reduce demand for our products, resulting in reduced sales. Our inability to adequately increase prices to offset increased costs associated with such inflationary pressures, or otherwise mitigate their impact, will increase our costs of doing business and could further reduce our margins and profitability. If such impacts are prolonged or substantial, they could necessitate impairment tests in the future or otherwise have a material negative effect on our results of operations.
Changes in U.S. or foreign trade policies, including the imposition of tariffs on imported goods and other trade restrictions, as well as uncertainty over such actions, may adversely impact our business and financial performance.
We obtain components and products from numerous suppliers throughout the world. Changes in laws or policies governing the terms of foreign trade, including tariffs or taxes on imports from countries where we manufacture our products could have an impact on our competitive position, business operations and financial performance. Further, if we deem it necessary to alter our activities or operations in response to such tariffs or taxes our capital and operating costs may increase. As a result, changes in trade policy and regulations in the U.S. and other countries could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
In 2025, the U.S. government imposed substantial tariffs and trade restrictions on certain foreign goods. In response, certain foreign governments, including China, imposed retaliatory tariffs on certain U.S. goods, which represented near-term challenges to our industry. On February 20, 2026, the United States Supreme Court held that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act does not authorize the President of the United States to impose tariffs, invalidating certain tariffs that had been imposed under that authority. Following this decision, policymakers have indicated that alternative statutory authorities, including provisions of the Trade Act of 1974 and other trade statutes, may be considered to impose temporary import surcharges or other trade restrictions. However, the scope, timing, and duration of any such measures remain uncertain. Significant uncertainty remains regarding the potential for new tariffs or trade restrictions to be imposed under alternative authorities, as well as how China and other countries may respond to evolving U.S. trade actions, including through previously imposed or additional retaliatory tariffs and other trade measures. These uncertainties surrounding domestic and foreign tariffs could require us to increase our prices, which could decrease demand for our products, and in certain cases, we may be unable to pass along such increased costs to our customers.
We are actively monitoring and evaluating the development and potential impacts of tariffs on our supply chain and results of operations. We have taken steps to mitigate the effects of current and potential tariffs on our business, including ongoing cost optimization initiatives and rapid adaptation of our production strategy. However, we may not be able to fully mitigate the effects of any prolonged tariffs or trade disputes. Further, additional trade restrictions could be adopted with little to no advance notice, and we may not be able to effectively mitigate the adverse impacts from such measures.
The performance of our gaming accessories business is affected by the continued success of the PC gaming market and third-party gaming platforms, such as Microsoft’s Xbox consoles, Sony’s PlayStation consoles and Nintendo’s Switch consoles. Our business could suffer if any of these parties fail to continue to drive the success of these platforms, develop new or enhanced video game platforms, or produce and timely release sufficient quantities of such consoles. Further, if a platform is withdrawn from the market or fails to sell, we may be forced to liquidate inventories relating to that platform or accept returns resulting in significant losses.
Our business is also affected by the continued success of third-party publishers developing and releasing game titles for current or future generation platforms. For example, the timely release of flagship titles like Grand Theft Auto VI and others have in the past helped, and in the future are expected to help, drive increased demand for our products. If such flagship titles are not released or are delayed, our results of operation may vary from past or anticipated future results of operation.
Shipment of our products subjects us to risk of product theft and loss. The strong demand for our products and the availability to resell stolen goods viaof resale marketplaces suchfor asthe Amazonsales orof eBay,stolen goods, makes our products a target for theft. We have experienced and may continue to experience theft of our products while they are being shipped to our customers. Such theft results in inventory losses and can affect our relationships with our customers, which could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We rely on third parties to manufacture and manage the logistics of transporting and distributing our products, which subjects us to a number of risks that have been exacerbated as a result of ongoing supply chain issues. Our manufacturers’ and suppliers’ ability to supply products to us is also subject to a number of risks, including the unavailability of raw materials or components, their financial instability, thedamage destruction ofto their facilities, work stoppages and any future public health crisis. Any shortage of raw materials or components or an inability to control costs associated with manufacturing could increase our costs or impair our ability to ship orders in a timely and cost-efficient manner. As a result, we could experience cancellations of orders, refusal to accept deliveries or a reduction in our prices and margins, any of which could harm our financial performance and results of operations.
In addition, the ongoing effectiveness of our supply chain is dependent on the timely performance of services by third parties shipping products and materials to and from our warehouse facilities and other locations. The factors that can adversely affect aspects of our supply chain include, but are not limited to, interruptions and disruptions to the delivery capabilities of our third-party shipping partners, fluctuating transportation costs, delays in the delivery of shipments, increased inventory loss due to organized crime, theft or damage, and adverse weather conditions. If we encounter problems with these shipments, our ability to meet retailer expectations, manage inventory, complete sales and achieve objectives for operating efficiencies could be materially adversely affectedaffected, and we may be required to incur materially higher costs for shipping, including air freight. We have experienced and may in the future experience disruptions in our supply chain as a result of the failure of third parties to meet our standards or commitments. If we fail to manage risks affecting our supply chain capabilities, we could experience a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.
The performance of our gaming accessories business is affected by the continued success of the PC gaming market and third-party gaming platforms, such as Microsoft’s Xbox consoles and Sony’s PlayStation consoles, as well as video games developed by such manufacturers and other third-party publishers. Our business could suffer if any of these parties fail to continue to drive the success of these platforms, develop new or enhanced video game platforms, develop popular game and entertainment titles for current or future generation platforms or produce and timely release sufficient quantities of such consoles. Further, if a platform is withdrawn from the market or fails to sell, we may be forced to liquidate inventories relating to that platform or accept returns resulting in significant losses.
There are numerous steps required to develop a product from conception to commercial introduction and to ensure timely shipment to retail customers, including designing, sourcing and testing the electronic components, receiving approval offrom hardware and other third-party licensors, factory availability and manufacturing and designing the graphics and packaging. Any difficulties or delays in the product development process will likely result in delays in the contemplated product introduction schedule. It is common in new product introductions or product updates to encounter technical and other difficulties affecting manufacturing efficiency and, at times, the ability to manufacture the product at all. Although these difficulties can be corrected or improved over time with continued manufacturing experience and engineering efforts, if one or more aspects necessary for the introduction of products are not completed as scheduled, or if technical difficulties take longer than anticipated to overcome, the product introductions will be delayed, or in some cases may be terminated. No assurances can be given that our products will be introduced in a timely fashion, and if new products are delayed, our sales and revenue growth may be limited or impaired.
During 2024,2025, our fivefour largest retail customers accounted for approximately 69%66% of our gross sales in the aggregate. The loss of, or financial difficulties experienced by, any of these or any of our other significant customers, including as a result of the bankruptcy of a customer, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. We do not have long-term agreements with these or other significant customers and our agreements with these customers do not require them to purchase any specific amount of products. Many of our customers generally purchase from us on a purchase order basis. As a result, agreements with respect to pricing, returns, cooperative advertising or special promotions, among other things, are subject to periodic negotiation with each customer. No assurance can be given that these or other customers will continue to do business with us or that they will maintain their historical levels of business. In addition, the uncertainty of product orders can make it difficult to forecast our sales and allocate our resources in a manner consistent with actual sales, and our expense levels are based in part on our expectations of future sales. If our expectations regarding future sales are inaccurate, we may be unable to reduce costs in a timely manner to adjust for sales shortfalls or ensure adequate product supply to meet customer demand. In addition, financial difficulties experienced by a significant customer could increase our exposure to uncollectible receivables and the risk that losses from uncollected receivables exceed the reserves we have set aside in anticipation of this risk or limit our ability to continue to do business with such customers.
We believe that our ability to extend the recognition and favorable perception of our brand is critical to implement our gaming accessory growth strategy, which includes maintaining our strong position in console gaming headsets and building our brand recognition and product appeal in controllers, simulation accessories and PC gaming headsets, keyboards, and mice as well as in additional new categories over time. These efforts cause us to incur significant marketing costs; however, these expenditures may not result in an increase in net sales that is sufficient to cover such costs.
Turtle Beach relies on its partnerships with influencers, athletesinfluencers and esports teams to expand our market and promote our products, and our marketing and promotion partners may not perform to our expectations.
Relationships with new and established influencers, athletesinfluencers and esports teams have been, and will continue to be, important to our success. We rely on these partners to assist us in generating increased acceptance and use of our product offerings. We have established a number of these relationships, and our growth depends in part on establishing new relationships and maintaining existing ones. Certain partners may not view their relationships with us as significant to their own businesses, and they may reassess their commitment to us or decide to partner with our competitors in the future. We cannot guarantee that any partner will perform their obligations as agreed or that we will be able to specifically enforce any agreement with them. If any partner does not perform consistent with our agreements, we may be subject to negative or adverse publicity and other reputational risks, including the risk of unfavorable perception on social media or other platforms. Additionally, our failure to maintain and expand these relationships may adversely impact our future revenue.
If demand for specific products increases beyond what we forecast, our suppliers and third-party manufacturers may not be able to increase production or obtain required components quickly enough to meet the demand. Our failure to meet market demand may lead to missed opportunities to increase our base of customers, damage our relationships with retailers or harm our business; and The on-going transition to new console platforms increases the likelihood that we could fail to accurately forecast demand for headsets, microphones,controllers, simulation hardware, and other gaming accessories for these platforms.
trade restrictions, higher tariffs, currency fluctuations or the imposition of additional regulations relating to the import or export of our products, especially in China, where many of our Turtle Beach products are manufactured, which could force us to seek alternate manufacturing sources or increase our costs;
volatility in the global economy, including a potential recession, and increased trade tensions with U.S. trading partners;
political and economic instability, including wars (such as the ongoing conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and in the Middle East),wars, terrorism, political unrest, boycotts, curtailment of trade and other business restrictions, any of which could materially and adversely affect our net sales and results of operations;
A material weakness is a deficiency or combination of deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our consolidated financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. If we experience a material weakness or otherwise fail to maintain an effective system of internal controlscontrol in the future, we may not be able to accurately or timely report our financial condition or results of operations. Any failure to maintain effective disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
In connection with preparing the financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024, we identified material weaknesses in our internal controls related to revenue recognition including deficiencies in the design and implementation of certain controls over our supply chain, particularly with respect to controls to timely detect and prevent the misappropriation of inventory that was in-transit to customers and management oversight of our third-party ordering process service provider. These design deficiencies resulted in the failure to timely detect and prevent the misappropriation of $3.4 million of inventory that was in-transit to customers for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024. These material weaknesses in our internal controls did not result in any material misstatements in these financial statements or omissions in our previously reported financial statements. These material weaknesses were remediated as of December 31, 2025.
As of December 31, 2025, we did identify a material weakness in the operation of certain Information Technology (“IT”) general controls (“ITGCs”) as more fully described in Item 9A, “Control Procedures” of this Form 10-K. The material weakness did not result in any identified misstatements to the consolidated financial statements and there were no changes to previously issued financial statements. We are in process of remediating this material weakness.
The Company has entered into a Rights Agreement, and if the holders exercise their share purchase rights under such agreement, it could materially adversely affect the price of our common stock and cause dilution to our existing stockholders.
On June 8, 2025, the Board of Directors of the Company approved and adopted a Rights Agreement, dated June 9, 2025 (the “Rights Agreement”), entered into with Direct Transfer, LLC, as Rights Agent. Pursuant to the Rights Agreement, the Board declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right (each, a “Right”) for each outstanding share of common stock of the Company. The Rights were distributable to stockholders of record as of the close of business on June 23, 2025 (the “Record Date”). One Right will also be issued with respect to (i) each share of common stock that the holders of the Company’s prefunded warrants outstanding as of the close of business on the Record Date would be entitled to acquire upon complete exercise thereof and (ii) each share of common stock issued by the Company after the Record Date, but before the Distribution Date (as defined in the Rights Agreement) (or the earlier redemption or expiration of the Rights) and, in certain circumstances, after the Distribution Date.
The Rights Agreement imposes a significant penalty upon any person or group that acquires beneficial ownership of ten percent (10%) or more of our common stock without the approval of the Board of Directors. As a result, the overall effect of the Rights Agreement and the issuance of the Rights may be to render more difficult or discourage a merger, tender or exchange offer or other business combination involving the Company that is not approved by the Board of Directors. The Rights Agreement is not intended to interfere with any merger, tender or exchange offer or other business combination approved by the Board of Directors, nor does the Rights Agreement prevent the Board of Directors from considering whether an offer is in the best interest of its stockholders.
The Rights have certain anti-takeover effects, including potentially discouraging a takeover that stockholders may consider favorable. The Rights will cause substantial dilution to a person or group that attempts to acquire us on terms not approved by the Board of Directors. The Rights and the Rights Agreement will expire on the earliest to occur of (i) the date on which all of the Rights are redeemed, (ii) the date on which the Rights are exchanged, and (iii) the close of business on June 9, 2026.
We rely on various intellectual property rights, including patents, trademarks, trade secrets and trade dress to protect our Turtle BeachBeach, Victrix and PDPother brand names, reputation, product appearance, and technology. Although we have entered into confidentiality and invention assignment agreements with our employees and contractors, and nondisclosure agreements with selected parties with whom we conduct business to limit access to and disclosure of our proprietary information, these contractual arrangements and the other steps we have taken to protect our intellectual property may not prevent misappropriation of that intellectual property or deter independent third-party development of similar technologies. Monitoring the unauthorized use of proprietary technology and trademarks is costly, and any dispute or other litigation, regardless of outcome, may be costly and time consuming and may divert the attention of management and key personnel from our business operations. The steps taken by us may not prevent unauthorized use of proprietary technology or trademarks. Many features of our products are not protected by patents; we may not have the legal right to prevent others from reverse engineering or otherwise copying and using these features in competitive products. If we fail to protect or to enforce our intellectual property rights successfully, our competitive position could suffer, which could adversely affect our financial results.
The performance of certain technologytechnologies used in new generation consoles, such as integrated voice and chat audio from the Xbox platforms are improved by a licensed component to ensure compatibility with our products.
InFor example, in order for certain of our headsets to connect to the Xbox platforms’ advanced features and controls, a proprietary computer chip or wireless module is required. As a result, with respect to our products designed for the Xbox platforms, we are currently reliant on Microsoft or their designated supplier to provide us with sufficient quantities of such chips and/or modules. If we are unable to obtain sufficient quantities of these chips and/or modules, sales of such Xbox platform compatible headsets and consequently our revenues would be adversely affected.
While the Company believes it currently has the necessary licenses, or can obtain the necessary licenses to produce compatible products, Microsoft, Nintendo, Sony and other third-party gaming platform manufacturers may control or limit our ability to manufacture headsets and controllers compatible with their platforms, and could cause unanticipated delays in the release of our products as well as increases to projected development, manufacturing, licensing, marketing or distribution costs, any of which could negatively impact our business.
In addition to cash flow generated from operations, we have financed our operations with a revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) from Bank of America, N.A. (“Bank of America”) and a term loan (the “Term Loan Facility”), each of which is secured and asset-based, and each provided by BlueBank Torchof Finance,America LLCas (“BlueAdministrative Torch”).Agent, Swingline Lender and L/C Issuer. If we are unable to comply with the financial and other covenants contained in the Credit Facility and Term Loan Facility (the documents containing such covenants, the “Loan Documents”)and are unable to obtain a waiver under the Loan Documents for such default, Bank of America or Blue Torch may declare any outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility or Term Loan Facility, as applicable, immediately due and payable. Such an event would have an immediate and material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition. We could be required to obtain additional financing from other sources, and we cannot predict whether or on what terms, if any, additional financing might be available. If we were required to seek additional financing and were unable to obtain it, we might need to change our business and capital expenditure plans, which may have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, because the obligations under both the Credit Facility and Term Loan Facility are secured by a first-priority lien on substantially all of our assets, any debt under the Credit Facility and Term Loan Facility could makelimit itour more difficultability to obtain other debt financing in the future.
The Loan Documents contain certain financial covenants and other restrictions that we are obligated to maintain. If we violate any of these covenants and are unable to timely cure such violation or obtain a waiver from our lenders, we would be in default under the applicable Loan Documents. These covenants include restrictions that limit our ability, among other things, to incur certain additional indebtedness; pay dividends and repurchase stock; make certain investments and other payments; enter into certain mergers or consolidations; undergo certain changes of control of our Company or Board of Directors; engage in sale and leaseback transactions and transactions with affiliates; and encumber and dispose of assets.assets that secure the Credit Facility and Term Loan Facility. These covenants also require us to maintain certain financial ratios and EBITDA levels during specified periods If a default occurs under any of our Loan Documents and is not timely cured or waived, Bank of America or Blue Torch, as applicable could seek remedies against us, including termination or suspension of obligations to make loans and issue letters of credit, and acceleration of amounts then outstanding under the applicable Loan Documents. No assurance can be given that we will be able to maintain compliance with these covenants in the future.periods.
If a default occurs under any of our Loan Documents and is not timely cured or waived, Bank of America could seek remedies against us, including termination or suspension of obligations to make loans and issue letters of credit, and acceleration of amounts then outstanding under the applicable Loan Documents. No assurance can be given that we will be able to maintain compliance with these covenants in the future.
The Credit Facility isand assetthe basedTerm Loan Facility, which are asset-based and secured by substantially the same collateral, can only be drawn down in an amount to which eligible collateral exists and can be negatively impacted by extended collection of accounts receivable, unexpectedly high product returns and slow-moving inventory, among other factors. In addition, weWe have granted the lender a first-priority lien against substantially all of our assets, including trade accounts receivable and inventories. Failure to comply with the operating restrictions or financial covenants could result in the lender terminating or suspending its obligation to make loans and issue letters of credit to us.
The Loan Documents provide our lenderslender with liensa lien against substantially all of our working capital assets, including trade accounts receivable, inventories, and intellectual property and contain certain restrictions on our ability to take certain actions.
We have granted Bank of America anda Blue Torch lienslien against substantially all of our working capital assets, including trade accounts receivable, inventories and our intellectual property. The respective priorities of the security interests securing the Credit Facility and Term Loan Facility are governed by an intercreditor agreement between Bank of America and Blue Torch. Failure to comply with the operating restrictions or financial or other covenants in the Loan Documents could result in a default which could cause theBank lendersof America to accelerate the timing of payments and exercise their lien on substantially all of our working capital and other assets.
We cannot predict the prices at which our common stock may trade. The market price of our common stock has fluctuated and may continue to fluctuate widely, depending on many factors, some of which may be beyond our control, including but not limited to:
We currently use limited traditional and generative AI solutions for certain functions as licensed software in a secured environment. We may incorporate additional AI solutions into our IT systems in the future, and these solutions may become important in our operations over time. The ever-increasing use and evolution of technology, including cloud-based computing and AI, creates opportunities for the potential loss or misuse of data that we use to run our business, and unintentional dissemination of confidential information stored in our or our third party providers’ systems, which may result in significantly increased business and security costs, a damaged reputation, administrative penalties, or costs related to defending legal claims. Our competitors or other third parties may incorporate AI into their IT systems and financial services operations more quickly or more successfully than us, which could impair our ability to compete effectively and adversely affect our operating results.
Compliance with existing and emerging data privacy laws, regulations and,regulations, industry standards and disclosures could result in increased compliance costs and/or lead to changes in our business practices and policies, and any failure to abide by these laws, regulations and industry standards could adversely affect our reputation, lead to public enforcement actions or private litigation against us, require additional investment in resources or personnel, and reduce the availability of previously useful data, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial conditioncondition.
We have had, and may continue to have, actions brought against us by stockholders, including in connection with the Merger (as defined below), as further described in Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies,stockholders based on past transactions, changes in our stock price or other matters. Any such claims, whether or not resolved in our favor, could divert our management and other resources from the operation of our business and otherwise result in unexpected and substantial expenses that would adversely and materially impact our business, financial condition and operating results.
We are subject to numerous domestic and foreign laws and regulations, including those related to customs, securities, consumer protection, data privacy, general employment and employee health and safety. New laws or regulations, changes in existing laws or regulations or the manner of their interpretation or enforcement, may create uncertainty, increase our cost of doing business and restrict our ability to operate our business or execute our strategies. This could include, among other things, compliance costs and enforcement under the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act related to disclosure and reporting requirements for companies that use “conflict” minerals originating from the Democratic Republic of Congo or adjoining countries. Additionally, the California Consumer Privacy Act and EU & UK General Data Protection Regulation have significantly affected how we are able to market our products. The SEC has also enacted or proposed significant changes to its regulations in recent years that impact our operations associated with being a public company.
We have set ESG goals and are enhancing related disclosure of goals, progress, and other matters relating to ESG.
Investor advocacy groups, institutional investors, investment funds, proxy advisory services, stockholders, and customers are increasingly focused on the ESG goals and practices of companies. We are frequently asked by these groups to set ambitious ESG goals and provide new and more robust disclosure of ESG goals, progress toward ESG goals and other matters of interest to ESG stakeholders. We have set ESG goals and are enhancing related disclosure of goals, progress, and other matters relating to ESG. Our efforts to accomplish and accurately disclose progress toward ESG-related goals and objectives present numerous operational, reputational, financial, legal, and other risks, any of which could have a negative impact on our business, reputation, and stock price.
Our ability to set and achieve ESG goals and initiatives is subject to numerous risks including, among others: (a) the availability and cost of limiting, eliminating or tracking our use of carbon-based energy sources and technologies, (b) evolving regulatory requirements affecting ESG standards or disclosures, including those related to greenhouse gas emissions tracking and disclosure, (c) our ability to partner with providers that can meet our sustainability, diversity, and other standards, (d) our ability to recruit, develop, and retain diverse talent, (e) the impact of our organic growth and acquisitions or dispositions of businesses or operations on our ESG goals, and (f) customers’ actual demand for ESG-oriented product offerings, which may be more expensive and less available than other options. Similarly, our failure or perceived failure to pursue or fulfill our goals, targets and objectives or to satisfy various reporting standards within the timelines we announce, or at all, could also have similar negative impacts and expose us to government enforcement actions and private litigation.
StandardsFurther, forour trackingdisclosure related to ESG goals and reportingpractices on ESG matters are relatively new, havemay not beenmeet harmonizedevolving stakeholder expectations and continueregulatory to be promulgated and evolve.requirements. Our selection of disclosure frameworks that seek to align with various reporting standards may change from time to time, including in response to new disclosure requirements,requirements andor mayregulations. These changes result in a lack of consistent or meaningful comparative data from period to period. In addition, our processesperiod and controls may not always comply with evolving standards for identifying, measuring and reporting ESG metrics, our interpretation of reporting standards may differ from those of others and such standards may change over time, any of which could result in significant/or revisions to our ESG goals or reported progress in achieving such goals.
If our ESG practices do not meet evolving investor or other stakeholder expectations and standards or regulatory requirements, then our reputation, our ability to attract or retain employees and our attractiveness as an investment, business partner or acquiror could be negatively impacted. Similarly, our failure or perceived failure to pursue or fulfill our goals, targets and objectives or to satisfy various reporting standards within the timelines we announce, or at all, could also have similar negative impacts and expose us to government enforcement actions and private litigation.
On August 1, 2025, we entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America. Borrowings bear interest at a rate that varies depending on the type of loan and the Borrower. The interest rate is calculated using a floating rate plus a margin. Depending on the type of loan, the floating rate will either be the prime rate announced by Bank of America, Term SOFR, Daily Simple SOFR, EURIBOR or SONIA. The margin ranges from 2.00% to 2.75% for base rate loans and SONIA based loans and from 3.00% to 3.75% for Term SOFR, Daily Simple SOFR and EURIBOR loans. The Credit Agreement also provides for an unused line fee, letter of credit fees, and agent fees. The Borrowers will be able to voluntarily prepay the principal of any advance, without penalty or premium, at any time in whole or in part, subject to certain breakage costs. As of December 31, 2025, interest rates for the term loan and revolving credit facilities were 7.27% and 7.11%, respectively.

During the three months ended June 30, 2026, we received tariff refunds totaling $8.2 million from the CBP related to previously paid import duties, all of which were recorded as an increase to cash. Of the total amount received, $4.3 million related to tariffs recognized in cost of revenue during the prior fiscal year. Because our right to the refund was established and the refund was received during the current quarter, the amount was recognized as a reduction of cost of goods revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2026. An additional $3.6 million related to tariffs previously capitalized as a component of inventory and was recognized as a reduction to inventory. The remaining amount, representing statutory interest on the refunded duties of $0.3 million, was recognized in Other expense (income), net in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Various modifications to U.S. tariff policy have been announced since the Supreme Court’s decision, and newly imposed tariffs may affect the Company’s future cost of inventory and operating results. Although the impact to the Company of ongoing changes in U.S. and international tariff policy remains uncertain, the Company continues to evaluate the extent of its exposure and actions available to mitigate any impacts.
On April 20, 2026, CBP launched an online portal for the submission of IEEPA-related tariff refund requests. Submitted claims will be reviewed by CBP to determine eligibility prior to the issuance of any refunds. In response to the Supreme Court’s ruling, the U.S. implemented a new 10% tariff on all imports under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974. These tariffs became effective on February 24, 2026, and are scheduled to remain in effect for up to 150 days, which is the maximum duration permitted under Section 122 without congressional authorization. Existing exclusions, including those related to the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (“USMCA”), remain in effect. As of March 31, 2026, our condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect any impacts attributable to such refunds.
Comparison of the Three Months Ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 to the Three Months Ended MarchJune 31,30, 2025
Net revenue for the three months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 was $42.2$56.4 million, a $21.7$0.4 million or 0.7% decrease from $63.9$56.8 million for the three months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2025,2025. reflectingThe decrease was primarily attributable to softer market demand for gaming accessoriesaccessories, which was driven primarilyin part by macroeconomic challenges affecting consumer spending.

Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2025
Net revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $98.5 million, a decrease of $22.2 million, or 18.4%, from $120.7 million. The decrease was primarily attributable to softer market demand for gaming accessories, which was driven in part by macroeconomic challenges affecting consumer spending.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, gross margin slightly decreased to 33.6% from 34.5% in the comparable prior year period. Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2026 included a $4.3 million reduction to cost of revenue related to the tariff refund received during the period, of which $3.1 million related to cost of revenue recognized in 2025. The year-over-year decrease in gross margin was primarily due to higher costs from certain product mix and transition-related costs associated with the relocation of the Company’s principal third-party logistics provider, partially offset by the tariff refund benefit.
Selling and marketing expenses decreasedincreased by $0.2$2.0 million, or 1.5%15.5% for the three months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to lowerhigher employeemarketing compensationinitiatives cost.and strategic brand positioning.

Interest expense increased by $1.7 million, or 85.0% to $3.7 million for three months ended June 30, 2026, from $2.0 million or for the three months ended June 30, 2025, and increased by $0.9 million, or 22.0%, to $5.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from $4.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increases were primarily attributable to a $1.8 million loss on extinguishment of debt recognized in connection with the April 2026 refinancing. This increase was partially offset by lower recurring interest expense, primarily reflecting lower average outstanding borrowings following repayments of the Company’s prior credit facilities, partially offset by interest incurred on the 2026 Term Loan Facility, which had an interest rate of 11.17% as of June 30, 2026, and amortization of debt discount and financing costs.
Interest expense decreased by $0.6 million or 31.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to lower interest costs associated with our refinancing in August 2025.

Adjusted EBITDA (and a reconciliation to Net loss, the nearest GAAP financial measure) for the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and MarchJune 31,30, 2025, are as follows (in thousands):
Cash provided by operating activities was $35.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, a decrease of $1.4 million from $37.3 million of cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to an $18.9 million increase in net loss, partially offset by favorable working capital changes of $17.2 million. Working capital changes provided $44.0 million of cash during the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared with $26.8 million during the prior six-month period, an improvement of $17.2 million. The year-over-year improvement in working capital was primarily driven by an $18.7 million favorable change in inventories, a $9.3 million favorable change in other liabilities, a $3.5 million favorable change in accounts payable, a $2.6 million favorable change in income taxes payable, and a $1.3 million favorable change in prepaid expenses and other assets, partially offset by an $18.2 million unfavorable change in accounts receivable. The current six-month period operating cash flows also reflected a $3.4 million non-cash adjustment for the change in sales returns reserve and the receipt of $8.2 million of tariff refunds, of which $4.3 million reduced cost of revenue, $3.6 million reduced inventory, and $0.3 million was recognized in other expense (income), net.
Cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $29.4 million, decrease of $11.1 million as compared to $40.5 million used for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease is primarily due to higher net loss of $14.5 million, paydown of accounts payable of $8.9 million and lower accounts receivable of $5.6 million. This was partially offset by $7.4 million of inventory sold, lower paydown of $5.4 million in other liabilities and lower prepaid expenses and other assets of $4.0 million.
Cash provided by operating activities for the threesix months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2025 was $40.5$37.3 million, an increase of $13.2 million as compared to $27.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

2024 Revolving Credit Facility
In 2024, we maintained a Revolving Credit Facility (the “2024 Revolving Credit Facility”) with Bank of America, N.A. (“Bank of America”) that provided up to $50.0 million in borrowing capacity, including a $10.0 million sub-facility for Turtle Beach Europe Limited, and was secured by substantially all Company assets. On March 13, 2024, the Company entered into a Fourth Amendment, dated as of March 13, 2024 (the “Fourth Amendment”), to the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility. We executed a Fourth Amendment to the facility, extending the maturity to March 13, 2027, incorporating Performance Designed Products LLC (“PDP”) acquisition assets into the U.S. Borrowing Base and updating interest rate and fee terms. The facility included customary covenants, including a minimum fixed-charge coverage ratio when availability thresholds were not met, and restrictions on additional indebtedness, dividends share repurchases, certain investments, mergers, and asset sales.
On August 1, 2025, we entered into the 2025 Credit Facility, defined and discussed below, and repaid in full the amount then-outstanding under the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility. We treated the 2025 Credit Facility as a partial extinguishment of the 2024 Revolving Credit Facility and recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $0.3 million to write-off the unamortized deferred financing costs in interest expense in its condensed consolidated statements of operations.
2024 Term Loan Facility
In March 2024, we entered into a $50.0 million Term Loan Facility (the “2024 Term Loan Facility”) with Blue Torch Finance, LLC (“Blue Torch”) to support the PDP acquisition, repay certain indebtedness of the acquired business, cover transaction‑related fees, and provide general corporate liquidity. The facility was being amortized over its term, was secured by substantially all Company assets, and carried a prepayment premium that expired in March 2025.
The 2024 Term Loan Facility was scheduled to mature on March 13, 2027 and included interest rates tied to base rate or Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) benchmarks with leverage‑based pricing tiers, as well as customary affirmative, negative, and financial covenants, including minimum liquidity and quarterly total net leverage requirements.
On August 1, 2025, we entered into the 2025 Credit Facility and repaid in full the amount then-outstanding under the 2024 Term Loan Facility for the amount of $43.2 million. We treated the repayment as a debt extinguishment and recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $1.7 million to write-off the unamortized deferred financing costs in interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
On August 1, 2025, we and certain of our subsidiaries entered into a Credit Agreement with Bank of America, as the administrative agent, the swingline lender and the line of credit issuer ("the 2025 Credit Facility.Facility"). The 2025 Credit Facility was to mature on August 1, 2028 and included a $60 million term loan facility and a $90 million revolving credit facility with designated sub-facility limits of (i) $15 million for the U.K. Borrower, (ii) $10 million for a swingline facility and (iii) $5 million for letters of credit. Actual credit availability under the revolving facility was subject to a borrowing base limitation that was calculated based on a percentage of eligible trade accounts receivable and inventories, the balances of which fluctuate, and was subject to discretionary reserves and revaluation adjustments. The 2025 Credit Facility may have been used for borrowings as well as for the issuance of letters of credit, repaying existing indebtedness outstanding as of the effective date of the 2025 Credit Facility and ongoing working capital and general corporate purposes as defined by the Credit Agreement governing the 2025 Credit Facility. The 2025 Credit Facility replaced our previous debt arrangements at that time.
BorrowingsPrior to its repayment and termination, borrowings under the 2025 Credit Facility bore interest at a rate that varied depending on the type of loan and the borrower. The interest rate was calculated using a floating rate plus a margin. Depending on the type of loan, the floating rate was either the prime rate announced by Bank of America, Term SOFR, Daily Simple SOFR, EURIBOR or SONIA. The margin will rangeranged from 2.00% to 2.75% for base rate loans and SONIA based loans and from 3.00% to 3.75% for Term SOFR, Daily Simple SOFR and EURIBOR loans. The 2025 Credit Facility also provided for an unused line fee, letter of credit fees, and agent fees. The borrowers were able to voluntarily prepay the principal of any advance, without penalty or premium, at any time in whole or in part, subject to certain breakage costs. As of March 31, 2026, there were no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility provided by the 2025 Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2026, interest rates for the term loan and revolving credit facilities under the 2025 Credit Facility were 7.02% and 0.00%, respectively.
On April 30, 2026, we repaid in full the amount then-outstanding under the 2025 Credit Facility in connection with the 2026 Term Loan Facility, as defined and described below. Accordingly, the 2025 Credit Facility was no longer available to us as of June 30, 2026. As part of the repayment, we recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $1.8 million to write-off the unamortized deferred financing costs in interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The 2025 Credit Facility required us and our subsidiaries to (i) maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio, defined as the ratio, determined on a consolidated basis for us and our subsidiaries for the applicable measurement period, of (a) EBITDA minus unfinanced capital expenditures and cash taxes paid for such period to (b) consolidated interest charges for such period plus principal payments or redemptions of outstanding debt plus certain restricted payments and (ii) maintain a consolidated leverage ratio, defined as the ratio, determined on a consolidated basis for us and our subsidiaries for the applicable measurement period, of (a) certain funded indebtedness minus unrestricted cash up to a maximum of $12.0 million to (b) EBITDA.
The 2025 Credit Facility also contained affirmative and negative covenants that, subject to certain exceptions, limited our ability to take certain actions, including our ability to incur debt, pay dividends and repurchase stock, make certain investments and other payments, enter into certain mergers and consolidations, engage in sale leaseback transactions and transactions with affiliates, and encumber and dispose of assets. The 2025 Credit Facility contained customary events of default, including defaults triggered by the failure to make payments when due, breaches of covenants and representations, material impairment in the perfection of the lenders’ security interest in the collateral, and events related to bankruptcy and insolvency of us and our subsidiaries. To secure their obligations under the 2025 Credit Facility, the Company and each of the other loan parties granted an all-assets lien with a first priority security interest in substantially all of their assets to the administrative agent.
As part of the Credit Agreement, we recorded deferred debt financing costs of $2.3 million.
On April 30, 2026, the Company repaid in full the amount then-outstanding under the 2025 Credit Facility in connection with the 2026 Credit Facility.
On April 30, 2026, we entered into a new financing agreement (the 2026 Term Loan Facility governed by the "2026 Term Loan Financing Agreement") by and among us, VTB,Voyetra Turtle Beach, Inc.
