2026 Adjusted EBITDA guidance $510M–$535M Reaffirmed full-year 2026 adjusted EBITDA outlook
Net debt $596.3 million Non-GAAP net debt as of March 31, 2026
Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Net income (GAAP) of $5.5 million; adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) of $99.1 million"
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
free cash flow financial
"Net cash provided from operating activities (GAAP) of $31.7 million; free cash flow (non-GAAP) of $20.7 million"
Free cash flow is the amount of money a company has left over after paying all its expenses and investing in its business, like buying equipment or updating facilities. It shows how much cash is available to reward shareholders, pay down debt, or save for future growth. This helps investors understand if a company is financially healthy and able to grow.
Non-GAAP financial
"To supplement our condensed consolidated financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company considers certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, including Non-GAAP results"
Non-GAAP refers to financial measures that companies use to show their earnings or performance without including certain expenses or income that are often added back to give a different picture. It matters because it can make a company's results look better or more favorable, but it may also hide important costs, so investors need to look at both GAAP (official rules) and non-GAAP numbers to get a full understanding.
net debt financial
"Note 3. Net debt is calculated as follows ($ in millions)"
Net debt is the total amount a company owes after subtracting the cash and assets it has that can be used to pay off that debt. It shows how much debt is truly a burden, helping investors understand if a company is financially healthy or heavily borrowed. Think of it like calculating how much money you owe after using your savings to pay part of it.
S&P SmallCap 600 Index financial
"Company selected for inclusion in the S&P SmallCap 600® Index, meeting specific liquidity and financial criteria"
A stock market index composed of 600 U.S. companies that are relatively small in total stock value, selected to represent the small-company segment of the market. Investors and fund managers use it as a benchmark and as a way to gain broad exposure to smaller firms; think of it as a single basket or thermometer that shows how the small-company portion of the stock market is performing and helps guide portfolio allocation and risk decisions.

development and engineering expense, gain/loss on sale of assets, net, and impairment of assets, and Note 2 for adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income (loss).

2 - With respect to the company’s adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow and adjusted earnings per share outlook for 2026, it is not providing reconciliations to the most
directly comparable GAAP financial measures because it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty those items that may affect such measures calculated and
presented in accordance with GAAP without unreasonable effort. These measures primarily exclude future restructuring and refinancing actions and net non-routine
items. These reconciling items are uncertain, depend on various factors and could significantly impact, either individually or in the aggregate, operating profit and net
income calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Marquez, president and chief executive officer, and Tom Timko, executive vice president and chief financial officer,

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Information
To supplement our condensed consolidated financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company considers certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, including Non-GAAP results, Non-GAAP operating profit margin, adjusted diluted earnings per share, free cash flow (use), net debt, EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA. The Company uses these Non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, to evaluate our operating and financial performance and to compare such performance to that of prior periods and to the performance of our competitors. Also, the Company uses these Non-GAAP financial measures in making operational and financial decisions and in establishing operational goals. The Company also believes providing these Non-GAAP financial measures to investors, as a supplement to GAAP financial measures, helps investors evaluate our operating and financial performance and trends in our business, consistent with how management evaluates such performance and trends. The Company also believes these Non-GAAP financial measures may be useful to investors in comparing its performance to the performance of other companies, although its Non-GAAP financial measures are specific to the Company and the Non-GAAP financial measures of other companies may not be calculated in the same manner. We provide EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA because we believe that investors and securities analysts will find EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to be useful measures for evaluating our operating performance and comparing our operating performance with that of similar companies that have different capital structures and for evaluating our ability to meet our future debt service, capital expenditure and working capital requirements. We consider free cash flow (use) to be a liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated by the business operations that, after the purchase of property and equipment and capitalized software development, can be used for debt servicing, strategic opportunities, including investing in the business, making strategic acquisitions, strengthening the balance sheet, paying dividends, and repurchasing our common shares. For more information, please refer to the section, "Notes for Non-GAAP Measures."

(1) In Q1 2026, the Company began to wind down operations of a non-core APMEA business, which is expected to be completed by the end of 2026. Total net sales for this non-core APMEA entity accounted for 0.4% and 0.4% of total consolidated revenue and contributed a loss to EBITDA of ~(1.2%) and ~(1.0%) of total consolidated EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Excluding net sales and EBITDA of the non-core APMEA business, revenue increased (decreased) by 6.1% and (6.6)%, and EBITDA increased (decreased) by 12.8% and (14.9)% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

The company defines EBITDA as net income (loss) excluding income tax benefit (expense), net interest expense, and depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA excluding the effects of the following items: share-based compensation, foreign exchange loss (gain), net, equity in earnings (loss) of unconsolidated subsidiaries, net, restructuring and other savings initiative expenses, wind down of a non-core APMEA business operation, and other non-routine (income) expenses, net as outlined in Note 1 of the Non-GAAP measures.

Deferred financing fee amortization is included in interest expense; as a result, the company has excluded such fees from the depreciation and amortization caption. Depreciation and amortization includes $1.1 and $1.0 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, of amortization of cloud-based software implementation which represents amortization of capitalized implementation costs related to cloud-based software arrangements that are included in selling and administrative expenses.

These are Non-GAAP financial measures used by management to enhance the understanding of our operating results. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are key measures we use to evaluate our operational performance. We provide EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because we believe that investors and securities analysts will find EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to be useful measures for evaluating our operating performance and comparing our operating performance with that of similar companies that have different capital structures and for evaluating our ability to meet our future debt service, capital expenditures, and working capital requirements. However, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net income as a measure of operating results or as alternatives to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity in accordance with GAAP.


Note 3. Net debt is calculated as follows ($ in millions):
March 31, 2026December 31, 2025March 31, 2025
Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and short-term investments (GAAP measure)$373.6 $416.4 $328.3 
Debt instruments(969.9)(970.7)(966.0)
Net debt (Non-GAAP measure)$(596.3)$(554.3)$(637.7)

We believe that cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short-term investments on the balance sheet that net cash against outstanding debt, presented as net debt above, is a meaningful measure.
