Sentiment and the balance of points

Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.

How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Filing Explained

PAR reports $202.6 million in non-cancellable purchase commitments, including $58.5 million due within the next 12 months.

This unaudited quarterly report updates interim financial statements and liquidity disclosures. As of September 30, 2026, outstanding convertible notes could result in 15,806,528 additional shares if converted, creating potential dilution for existing common holders, not shares already issued.

At September 30, 2026, PAR had $202.6 million in non-cancellable purchase commitments: $58.5 million was due within 12 months and $144.1 million thereafter.

A goodwill test found estimated reporting-unit fair value about 22% above carrying value, and PAR recorded no goodwill impairment as of September 30, 2026. The company says a further sustained decline in share price and market capitalization, particularly alongside operating or valuation deterioration, may require additional impairment testing.

annual recurring revenue financial
"annual recurring revenue, or ARR"
Annual recurring revenue is the predictable amount of money a company expects to earn each year from ongoing customer subscriptions or contracts. It helps businesses understand how much steady income they can count on, much like a subscription service that charges customers every month or year. This figure is important because it shows the company's stability and growth potential.
Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Reconciliation of Net Loss to Adjusted EBITDA"
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.
asset acquisition financial
"accounted for as an asset acquisition"
An asset acquisition is when a company buys specific pieces of another business—such as equipment, buildings, patents, customer lists, or inventory—rather than buying the other company’s stock. For investors, it matters because this lets a buyer add value or cut costs without taking on unwanted liabilities, similar to shopping for and installing only the useful appliances in a house instead of buying the whole property; the move can change future revenue, costs and risk.
inducement loss on settlement of convertible notes financial
"inducement loss on settlement of convertible notes"
anti-dilutive financial
"anti-dilutive stock options outstanding"
A claim, security feature, or action described as anti-dilutive prevents or does not cause a reduction in existing shareholders’ per-share values when additional shares could be issued. For example, certain convertible securities or corporate actions are treated as anti-dilutive for earnings-per-share calculations if including them would raise EPS rather than lower it; investors watch this because it affects reported per-share metrics, ownership percentages, and valuation comparisons, like keeping pie slices the same size instead of making them smaller.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are not historical in nature, but rather are predictive of PAR's future operations, financial condition, financial results, business strategies, and prospects. Forward-looking statements are generally identified by words such as “believe,” “could," "would," "should," "will," “continue,” "anticipate," “expect,” “plan,” "intend," "estimate," “future," “may,” “potential,” and similar expressions.

Forward-looking statements are based on management's current expectations and assumptions and are inherently uncertain. Actual results and outcomes could differ materially from those expressed in or implied by forward-looking statements, including forward-looking statements relating to and our expectations regarding:

•our plans, strategies, and objectives for future operations and the growth of our business, including our service and product offerings, our go-to-market strategies, and the expected development, demand, performance, market share, and competitive performance of our products and services;
•our ability to achieve and sustain profitability;
•our future revenues, gross margins, expenses, cash flows, and other financial measures;
•annual recurring revenue (ARR), active sites, subscription service gross margins, net loss, net income (loss) per share, and other key performance indicators and non-GAAP financial measures;
•the availability and terms of product and component supplies for our hardware products;
•the timing and expected benefits of acquisitions, divestitures, and capital markets transactions;
•our human capital strategies and engagement;
•macroeconomic trends, geopolitical events, tariffs, and trade disputes and the expected impact of those trends and events on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows;
•claims, disputes, or other litigation matters; and
•assumptions underlying any of the foregoing.

Factors, risks, trends, and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by forward-looking statements include:

•our ability to successfully develop, acquire and transition new products and services, while enhancing existing ones to meet evolving customer needs and emerging technological trends, including through effective use of artificial intelligence (AI) in product development and integration of AI tools across our products, service offerings and our customers’ data;
•our ability to add and maintain active sites and retain customers, including the effects of customer churn, non-renewals, and reduced purchasing;
•our ability to retain and add integration partners;
•macroeconomic trends, such as the effects of inflation, recession, interest rate fluctuations, and changes in consumer confidence and discretionary spending; and geopolitical events affecting countries where we operate or our customers or suppliers operate;
•our ability to retain and manage suppliers, secure alternative suppliers, and manage inventory levels and costs, navigate manufacturing disruptions or logistics challenges, shipping delays and shipping costs;
•the impact of changes in import/export regulations, including tariffs, and trade disputes between the United States and other countries where we operate or our customers or suppliers operate;
•the effects, costs, and timing of acquisitions, divestitures, and capital markets transactions;
•our ability to integrate acquisitions into our operations and the timing, complexity, and costs associated with integrations;
•our ability to attract, develop, and retain qualified employees to develop and expand our business, execute product installations, and respond to customer service level needs;
•the protection of our intellectual property;
•our ability to generate sufficient cash flow or access additional financing sources as needed to repay outstanding debts, including amounts owed under our outstanding convertible notes;
•legal, regulatory, reputational, and financial risks resulting from cybersecurity incidents, unauthorized access to customer or company data, or the perception that such events may have occurred;
•the impact of future pandemics, epidemics, or other outbreaks of disease;
•changes in estimates and assumptions we make in connection with the preparation of our financial statements (including those used to test goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment, which could be affected by declines in our share price or market capitalization) or in building our business and operations plan and in executing our strategies;



•our ability to maintain proper and effective internal control over financial reporting;
•our ability to execute our business and operations plan, implement our strategies, and manage our business continuity risks, including service interruptions and disruptions or delays in product assembly and fulfillment;
•potential impacts, liabilities, and costs from pending or potential investigations, claims, and disputes; and
•other factors, risks, trends, and uncertainties disclosed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), particularly those listed under the heading "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and this Quarterly Report.

We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities law.

The accompanying financial statements of PAR Technology Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X pertaining to interim financial statements as promulgated by the SEC. In the opinion of management, the Company's financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading and to provide a fair presentation of the Company's financial results for the interim period included in this Quarterly Report. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year or any future periods. The information included in this Quarterly Report should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (the “2025 Annual Report”).

The results of operations of the Company's Government segment are reported as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented. All results and information in the condensed consolidated financial statements are presented as continuing operations and exclude the Government segment unless otherwise noted specifically as discontinued operations.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements requires management of the Company to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Significant items subject to these estimates and assumptions include revenue recognition, stock-based compensation, the recognition and measurement of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations and asset acquisitions at fair value, identifiable intangible assets and goodwill, valuation allowances for receivables, and valuation of excess and obsolete inventories. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Asset Impairment Charges

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company recorded a $5.4 million impairment charge related to an indefinite-lived trademark acquired in the March 2024 acquisition of Stuzo Blocker, Inc., Stuzo Holdings, LLC, and their respective subsidiaries (the "Stuzo Acquisition"). The impairment followed the Company's decision, made during the second quarter of 2026, to discontinue the use of the trademark in marketing and customer-facing materials and not renew the related trademark registration. The Company determined the trademark was no longer expected to provide any future economic benefit and reduced the carrying amount of the asset to zero. The impairment charge is presented as intangible asset impairment loss in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company also recorded a $0.1 million impairment charge included in subscription service cost of sales in the condensed consolidated statements of operations related to the write-off of the remaining capitalized software development costs for the abandoned PAR Clear product. Both impairment charges were recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2026.

Goodwill

Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level at least annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. In conducting this impairment testing, the Company may first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value. If the Company concludes that it is not more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value, no further goodwill impairment testing is required. If the Company concludes that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value, or if the Company elects not to perform a qualitative assessment, the Company performs a quantitative analysis in which the fair value of the reporting unit is compared with its carrying value. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge is recognized for that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit.

As of September 1, 2026, the Company performed a quantitative goodwill impairment test of its single reporting unit, in response to, among other factors, the sustained decline in the Company’s share price and market capitalization through the third quarter of 2026 and the reversal of the recovery trend in September 2026. The estimated fair value of the reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by approximately 22% and, accordingly, no goodwill impairment was recognized. The fair value was estimated using a combination of income and market approaches. Significant assumptions used in the assessment included projected revenue growth and operating margins, market multiples, a control premium, a discount rate of 12.5%, and a long-term growth rate of 3.0%. The Company considered events and circumstances through September 30, 2026, and concluded it was not more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit was less than its carrying value. If the Company's share price and market capitalization decline further for a sustained period, particularly if accompanied by deterioration in our operating results, forecasts, peer valuation multiples, or other market-participant assumptions, the Company may be required to perform additional impairment testing.

Note 3 — Acquisitions

Bridg Asset Acquisition

On January 23, 2026, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement by and among the Company, DB Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and an indirectly wholly owned subsidiary of the Company ("DB Sub"), and Cardlytics, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Cardlytics"), pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire, through DB Sub, substantially all of Cardlytics' point-of-sale data analytics, loyalty marketing, and retail media network business assets offered through the Bridg platform (the "Bridg Asset Acquisition"). The Company also agreed to assume certain liabilities associated with the acquired assets. On March 24, 2026 (the "Bridg Closing Date"), the Bridg Asset Acquisition closed and the Company issued 1,810,222 shares of common stock as consideration, which was determined by dividing the $27.5 million purchase price by the volume weighted average price of a share of common stock on the New York Stock Exchange for the fifteen consecutive trading days ending on the trading day immediately prior to the Bridg Closing Date. The Company acquired the assets to expand its customer engagement product and service offerings across the restaurant and retail industries.

The total consideration for the Bridg Asset Acquisition was approximately $25.1 million, consisting of $24.8 million of equity consideration, determined using the $13.72 closing price per share of the Company's common stock on the Bridg Closing Date, and $0.3 million of acquisition expenses related to the Bridg Asset Acquisition that were capitalized as a component of the cost of the assets acquired.

The transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, whereby the purchase price is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values as of the Bridg Closing Date, and no goodwill is recognized. The fair value determinations were based on management's estimates and assumptions, with the assistance of valuation consultants. During the three months ended June 30, 2026, the fair values of assets and liabilities as of the Bridg Closing Date were finalized. There were no adjustments made to the initial fair values of assets and liabilities recorded.

The following table presents management's purchase price allocation:

Intangible Assets

The Company identified two acquired intangible assets in the Bridg Asset Acquisition: developed technology and customer relationships. The fair value of developed technology was determined utilizing the “relief from royalty” approach, which is a form of the income approach that attributes savings recognized from not having to pay a royalty for the use of an asset. The Company applied a seven-year economic life, a fair and reasonable royalty rate of 10.0%, and a discount rate of 23.5% in determining the Bridg developed technology intangible fair value. The fair value of the customer relationship intangible asset was determined utilizing the “multi-period excess earnings method,” which method is predicated upon the calculation of the net present value of after-tax net cash flows respectively attributable to each asset. The Company applied a 20.0% estimated annual attrition rate and discount rate of 23.5% in determining the Bridg customer relationships intangible fair value. The estimated useful life of each of the foregoing identifiable intangible assets was determined to be seven years for developed technology and seven years for customer relationships.

Note 7 — Debt

Pursuant to privately negotiated agreements dated January 14, 2026, on January 23, 2026, the Company acquired $17.1 million aggregate principal amount of its remaining outstanding 2.875% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes") in exchange for 485,186 shares of the Company's common stock, plus approximately $134,000 in cash for accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of 2026 Notes exchanged to, but excluding, the closing date (the “Notes Exchange”). The difference between the fair value of the original conversion terms and the fair value of the induced conversion terms at the time of settlement resulted in an inducement loss on settlement of convertible notes of approximately $3.5 million, which is recorded in gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt, net in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations. An aggregate of $2.9 million principal amount of the 2026 Notes remained outstanding following the Notes Exchange, which the Company repaid in cash at maturity during the three months ended June 30, 2026.

On March 17, 2026, the Company completed a private offering of $265.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2031 (the "2031 Notes"), which amount includes $15.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2031 Notes issued pursuant to the initial purchasers' full exercise of their option to purchase additional 2031 Notes. The 2031 Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated March 17, 2026, between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee. The 2031 Notes bear an interest of

Table of Contents
4.00% per year, payable semiannually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning September 15, 2026. Interest accrues on the 2031 Notes from the last date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for or, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from March 17, 2026. Unless earlier converted, redeemed, or repurchased, the 2031 Notes mature on March 15, 2031. The 2031 Notes are convertible into Company common stock at an initial conversion rate of 52.5762 shares per $1,000 principal amount. The Company incurred debt issuance costs of $8.0 million related to the offering of the 2031 Notes.

On March 17, 2026, the Company used a portion of the net proceeds from its sale of the 2031 Notes to repurchase $212.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Company's 1.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2027 (the "2027 Notes") for approximately $207.5 million, consisting of $206.2 million paid to retire the principal and $1.3 million of accrued and unpaid interest. The Company recognized a $3.9 million gain on extinguishment of debt as a result of repurchasing a portion of the 2027 Notes at a price below their carrying value, partially offset by the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs. This gain is included in gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt, net in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations. Following the repurchase, an aggregate of $53.0 million principal amount of the 2027 Notes remained outstanding.

Note 8 — Stockholders' Equity

On January 23, 2026, the Company issued 485,186 shares of its common stock in exchange for a portion of the 2026 Notes in connection with the Notes Exchange. Refer to "Note 7 — Debt" for additional information about the Notes Exchange.

On February 26, 2026, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program pursuant to which the Company may repurchase up to $100.0 million of its common stock in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, block trades, accelerated share repurchase transactions, or by other means, including under Rule 10b5-1 plans. In addition, any repurchases under this share repurchase program will be subject to prevailing market conditions, liquidity and cash flow considerations, applicable securities laws requirements (including under Rule 10b-18 and Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act), and other factors. The share repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of its common stock, it may be suspended, modified, or terminated at any time at the Company’s discretion, and it expires February 26, 2028. When shares are repurchased and retired, the Company reduces common stock for the aggregate par value of those shares, with the excess of the purchase price over par value recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in capital.

On March 17, 2026, the Company used a portion of the net proceeds from its sale of the 2031 Notes to, pursuant to its share repurchase program, repurchase approximately 2.1 million shares of its common stock in privately negotiated transactions with or through one or more affiliates of the initial purchasers at a price of $15.85 per share, for a total of approximately $33.1 million. As of September 30, 2026, the Company was authorized to purchase a remaining $66.9 million of its common stock under its share repurchase program.

On March 24, 2026, the Company issued 1,810,222 shares of common stock related to the Bridg Asset Acquisition. Refer to "Note 3 — Acquisitions" for additional information about the Bridg Asset Acquisition.

Note 10 — Net Loss Per Share

Net loss per share is calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share, which specifies the computation, presentation, and disclosure requirements for earnings per share (“EPS”). It requires the presentation of basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS excludes all dilution and is based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that would occur if convertible securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised. As of September 30, 2026, there were 781,606 anti-dilutive stock options outstanding compared to 686,631 as of September 30, 2025. As of September 30, 2026, there were 2,195,677 anti-dilutive restricted stock units outstanding compared to 1,134,860 as of September 30, 2025. As of September 30, 2026, there were 15,806,528 anti-dilutive shares potentially issuable upon conversion of the Company's outstanding convertible notes, calculated using the initial conversion rates per the respective indentures.

Note 13 — Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments have been recorded at fair value using available market information and valuation techniques. The fair value hierarchy is based upon three levels of input, which are:

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (observable)

Level 2 — inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable market data for essentially the full term of the asset or liability (observable)

Level 3 — unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, but are significant to determining the fair value of the asset or liability (unobservable)

The Company’s financial instruments primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, cash held on behalf of customers, short-term investments, and debt instruments. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, cash held on behalf of customers, and short-term investments as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were considered representative of their fair values because of their short-term nature and are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Debt instruments are recorded at principal amount net of unamortized debt issuance cost (refer to "Note 7 — Debt" for additional information). The estimated fair value of the 2027 Notes, the 1.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030 (the "2030 Notes"), and the 2031 Notes (together with the 2027 Notes and the 2030 Notes, the "Senior Notes") at September 30, 2026 was $50.0 million, $93.3 million, and $288.4 million, respectively. The estimated fair value of the 2026 Notes, 2027 Notes, and 2030 Notes at December 31, 2025 was $20.7 million, $260.7 million, and $98.6 million, respectively. The valuation techniques used to determine the fair value of the Company's long-term debt are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as they are derived from broker quotations.

Macroeconomic Environment

The tariff and supply chain environment remains complex and evolving. Beginning in 2025, the U.S. government implemented a series of significant tariffs, including under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act ("IEEPA"), affecting imports from several countries where we source certain components and hardware products. On February 20, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court held that IEEPA does not authorize the imposition of tariffs and, as of September 30, 2026, we have applied for and received refunds. Following the ruling, a 10% global tariff under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 took effect on February 24, 2026 and expired on July 24, 2026 by its terms. On July 24, 2026, the U.S. Trade Representative imposed new duties under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974 of 10% or 12.5% on imports from 60 jurisdictions, which have no stated expiration date and are subject to legal challenge. We are continuing to assess the recoverability of additional IEEPA tariffs previously paid, as well as the effects of any additional tariffs or trade actions that may be imposed.

Additionally, increased demand for hardware products and components from AI data center construction around the world continues to create uncertainty as to whether these products will be available or available in needed quantities and quality or at favorable or competitive prices. We continue to monitor macroeconomic trends and uncertainties in light of continuing changes to global trade policies and supply chain pressures, which may have adverse effects on our hardware revenue and hardware gross margin.

As a result of these events, we anticipate increased supply chain challenges, commodity cost volatility, and consumer and economic uncertainty. Management continues to evaluate and implement mitigating actions, including potential supply chain resiliency movements, cost or pricing measures and alternative shipping practices, if needed, as the macroeconomic environment evolves.

increase of $11.1 million or 14.9% compared to $74.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025. Of this increase, $4.2 million was contributed by the Bridg product line, acquired in March 2026. Excluding the Bridg contribution, subscription service revenues increased $6.9 million, driven by growth in average revenue per site through cross-selling, upselling, and price increase initiatives.

Hardware revenues were $34.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, an increase of $4.5 million or 15.0% compared to $29.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by increased revenues from sales of terminals of $3.6 million and an increase in international sales of $0.6 million. These increases were substantially driven by the timing of tier-one enterprise customer hardware refresh cycles and the onboarding of subscription service customers purchasing hardware. Hardware revenues will continue to be affected by the timing of the aforementioned drivers.

Professional service revenues were $16.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, an increase of $2.3 million or 16.1% from $14.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by a $2.5 million increase in installation revenues associated with the onboarding of tier-one customers.

Subscription service revenues were $247.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, an increase of $32.7 million or 15.2% compared to $215.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Of this increase, $8.7 million was contributed by the Bridg product line, acquired in March 2026. Excluding the Bridg contribution, subscription service revenues increased $24.0 million, driven by growth in average revenue per site through cross-selling, upselling, and price increase initiatives.

Hardware revenues were $98.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, an increase of $20.1 million or 25.6% compared to $78.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by increased revenues from sales of terminals of $12.2 million, peripherals (scanners, printers, and components) of $1.8 million, and an increase in international sales of $3.2 million. These increases were substantially driven by the timing of tier-one enterprise customer hardware refresh cycles and the onboarding of subscription service customers purchasing hardware. Hardware revenues will continue to be affected by the timing of the aforementioned drivers.

Professional service revenues were $48.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, an increase of $6.2 million or 14.9% compared to $41.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by a $6.3 million increase in installation revenues associated with the onboarding of tier-one customers.

Total gross margin as a percentage of total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2026, increased to 43.8% from 41.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2025.

Subscription service gross margin as a percentage of subscription service revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2026, was relatively unchanged at 55.8% compared to 55.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2025.

Hardware gross margin as a percentage of hardware revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2026, increased to 22.7% from 17.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by pricing actions implemented over the past year to offset increased supply chain costs associated with U.S. tariff policies.

Professional service gross margin as a percentage of professional service revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2026, increased to 25.9% from 17.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by lower hardware repair service costs, reflecting the timing of certain expenses in the prior period, and improved margins on installation services as increased volume associated with the onboarding of tier-one customers was absorbed by our existing cost base. These improvements were partially offset by a shift in professional service revenue mix toward lower-margin installation services.

Hardware margin as a percentage of hardware revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, decreased to 21.6% from 22.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by an increase in excess and obsolete inventory expense, including a $1.5 million charge recorded in the second quarter of 2026 related to the discontinuance of the PAR Clear product.

Professional service gross margin as a percentage of professional service revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, increased to 25.5% from 23.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025

G&A expenses were $83.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, a decrease of $8.8 million or 9.5% compared to $92.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by a $3.5 million decrease in recurring compensation costs, a $0.8 million decrease in bad debt expense, and a $1.3 million decrease in other non-compensation expenses.

The remaining decrease was primarily driven by decreases in certain non-cash or non-recurring expenses consisting of a $2.2 million decrease in transaction due diligence and integration costs, a $1.7 million decrease in stock-based compensation, and a $0.6 million decrease in litigation-related expenses, partially offset by a $1.3 million increase in severance costs related to non-recurring restructuring activities.

Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

We monitor certain key performance indicators and non-GAAP financial measures in the evaluation and management of our business; certain key performance indicators and non-GAAP financial measures are provided in this Quarterly Report because we believe they are useful in facilitating period-to-period comparisons of our business performance. Key performance indicators and non-GAAP financial measures do not reflect and should be viewed independently of our financial performance determined in accordance with GAAP. Key performance indicators and non-GAAP financial measures are not forecasts or indicators of future or expected results and should not have undue reliance placed upon them by investors.

Key Performance Indicators

Within this Quarterly Report the Company makes reference to annual recurring revenue, or ARR, and active
32

Table of Contents
sites, which are both key performance indicators. The Company uses ARR and active sites as key performance indicators of the scale of our subscription services for both new and existing customers.

ARR is the annualized revenue from our subscription services, which includes subscription fees for our SaaS solutions and related support, managed platform development services, and transaction-based fees for payment processing services. We generally calculate ARR by annualizing the monthly recurring revenue for all active sites as of the last day of each month for the respective reporting period. ARR is an operating measure; it does not reflect our revenue determined in accordance with GAAP. ARR should be viewed independently of, and not combined with or substituted for, our revenue and other financial information determined in accordance with GAAP. Further, ARR is not a forecast of future revenue, and investors should not place undue reliance on ARR as an indicator of our future or expected results. Our reported ARR is based on a constant currency, using the exchange rates established at the beginning of the year and consistently applied throughout the period and to comparative periods presented. The table below presents our ARR on a constant currency basis, calculated using the exchange rates set at the beginning of 2026. Using the exchange rates established during the prior period, ARR as of September 30, 2025 was $1.7 million lower than the constant currency ARR reported below.

Active sites represent locations active on our subscription services as of the last day of the respective reporting period.

Beginning in the first quarter of 2026, the Company revised its methodology for classifying organic and inorganic ARR. Under the revised methodology, inorganic ARR is defined as ARR attributable to an acquisition as of the acquisition date. Any change to ARR subsequent to that date is classified as organic ARR. Management believes this methodology provides investors with useful information differentiating ARR acquired in a transaction from ARR changes driven by operating performance after acquisition. Prior to this change, ARR contributions from acquisitions were classified as inorganic for the first twelve months following acquisition.

Beginning in the second quarter of 2026, our key performance indicators, ARR and active sites, are presented on a total basis rather than disaggregated into our Engagement Cloud and Operator Cloud subscription service product lines as presented in prior periods. As multi-product arrangements have become increasingly common and our products are marketed and delivered as a unified platform, management no longer views or manages the business along these two separate product lines. This change aligns our key performance indicators with how management currently evaluates the business. Prior period amounts have been conformed to this presentation for comparability. Total active sites will not equal the sum of previously reported product line active site counts because sites that subscribed to both product lines are counted only once in the total active site metric.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to disclosing financial results in accordance with GAAP, this Quarterly Report contains references to the non-GAAP financial measures below. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with useful supplemental information about our operating performance, enable comparison of financial trends and results between periods where certain items may vary independent of business performance, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in operating our business and measuring our performance. Our non-GAAP financial measures reflect adjustments based on one or more of the following items below.

Our non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations from these results should be carefully evaluated. Additionally, these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures disclosed by other companies.

Non-GAAP Measure or AdjustmentDefinitionUsefulness to management and investors
Non-GAAP subscription service gross margin percentage
Represents subscription service gross margin percentage adjusted to exclude amortization from acquired and internally developed software, stock-based compensation, severance, and impairment of capitalized software development costs.
We believe that non-GAAP subscription service gross margin percentage and adjusted EBITDA provide useful perspectives with respect to the Company's core operating performance and ongoing cash earnings by adjusting for certain non-cash and non-recurring charges that may not be indicative of our financial performance.
Adjusted EBITDA
Represents net loss before income taxes, interest expense, and depreciation and amortization adjusted to exclude discontinued operations, stock-based compensation, transaction costs, severance, impairment loss, litigation expense, (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt, net, and other income (expense), net.
Non-GAAP diluted net income per share
Represents net loss per share excluding amortization of acquired intangible assets, non-cash interest, discontinued operations, stock-based compensation, transaction costs, severance, impairment loss, litigation expense, (gain) loss on extinguishment of debt, net, and other income (expense), net, as well as the income tax effect of these adjustments.
We believe that adjusting our diluted net loss per share to remove non-cash and non-recurring charges provides a useful perspective with respect to the Company's operating performance as well as comparisons to past and competitor operating results.
Stock-based compensationConsists of non-cash charges related to our employee equity incentive plans.We exclude stock-based compensation because management does not view these non-cash charges as part of our core operating performance. This adjustment facilitates a useful evaluation of our current operating performance as well as comparisons to past and competitor operating results.
Transaction costsAdjustment reflects non-recurring professional fees incurred in transaction due diligence and integration.We exclude professional fees incurred in corporate development because management does not view these non-recurring charges, which are inconsistent in size and are significantly impacted by the timing and valuation of our transactions, as part of our core operating performance. This adjustment facilitates a useful evaluation of our current operating performance, comparisons to past and competitor operating results, and additional means to evaluate expense trends.

Non-GAAP Measure or AdjustmentDefinitionUsefulness to management and investors
SeveranceAdjustment reflects severance tied to non-recurring restructuring activities included in cost of sales, sales and marketing expense, general and administrative expense, and research and development expense.We exclude these non-recurring adjustments because management does not view these costs as part of our core operating performance. These adjustments facilitate a useful evaluation of our current operating performance as well as comparisons to past and competitor operating results.
Litigation expenseAdjustment reflects non-recurring legal fees incurred in connection with certain litigation matters.
Impairment lossAdjustment reflects impairment charges related to the write-off of an indefinite-lived trademark acquired in the Stuzo Acquisition and the write-off of capitalized
software development costs related to the abandoned PAR Clear product.
(Gain) loss on extinguishment of debt, netAdjustment reflects gain recognized on the repurchase of a portion of the 2027 Notes, partially offset by loss recognized on the induced conversion of a portion of the 2026 Notes, and loss recognized on early repayment of the Credit Facility.
Discontinued operationsAdjustment reflects income from discontinued operations related to the divestiture of our Government segment.
Other (income) expense, netAdjustment reflects foreign currency transaction gains and losses and other non-recurring income and expenses recorded in other income (expense), net in the accompanying statements of operations.
Non-cash interestAdjustment reflects non-cash amortization of issuance costs and discount related to the Company's long-term debt.We exclude these non-cash and non-recurring adjustments for purposes of calculating non-GAAP diluted net income (loss) per share because management does not view these costs as part of our core operating performance. These adjustments facilitate a useful evaluation of our current operating performance, comparisons to past and competitor operating results, and additional means to evaluate expense trends.
Acquired intangible assets amortizationAdjustment reflects amortization expense of acquired developed technology included within cost of sales and amortization expense of acquired intangible assets.

Beginning in the second quarter of 2026, the Company revised its calculation of non-GAAP net income (loss) per share to: (i) reflect the current and deferred income tax effects attributable to its non-GAAP adjustments; and (ii) include the dilutive effect of equity-based awards and other potentially dilutive securities when the Company reports non-GAAP net income, even when such securities are excluded from GAAP diluted earnings per share because they were antidilutive to the GAAP net loss. Prior period non-GAAP amounts presented herein have been recast to conform to the revised methodology. These revisions affect only the Company’s non-GAAP measures and do not affect its GAAP financial statements, GAAP net income (loss), or GAAP net income (loss) per share.

(2) When convertible senior notes are dilutive on a non-GAAP basis, non-GAAP net income used to calculate non-GAAP diluted net income per share includes an add-back of interest expense associated with those dilutive convertible notes under the if-converted method.
(3) Represents the incremental effect of dilutive securities included in the calculation of non-GAAP diluted weighted average shares outstanding.
(4) Non-GAAP diluted weighted average shares outstanding include the effect of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents (stock options, restricted stock units, and warrants) under the treasury stock method. Shares issuable upon conversion of the Company's convertible senior notes are included when their conversion is dilutive to non-GAAP net income per share for the periods presented after applying the if-converted method from the beginning of the period or, if later, the issuance date, which requires adding back the related interest expense to the numerator and including the shares issuable upon conversion in the denominator. For the three months ended September 30, 2026, the 2031 Notes were dilutive and included in the calculation.

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2026, we had cash and cash equivalents of $94.5 million. Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with maturities of 90 days or less, including money market funds.

Cash provided by operating activities was $11.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to cash used in operating activities of $15.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The improvement in operating cash flow was primarily driven by improved profitability from our core operations.

Cash used in investing activities was $9.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to $10.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 included capital expenditures of $8.3 million for developed technology costs associated with our software platforms and capital expenditures of $1.0 million for fixed assets. The greater amount of cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was largely driven by our asset acquisition of GoSkip, partially offset by an increase in capital expenditures for developed technology costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2026.

Cash provided by financing activities was $15.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $11.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 primarily consisted of the net proceeds from the sale of the 2031 Notes of $257.1 million (net of issuance costs), partially offset by $206.2 million used to repurchase a portion of the 2027 Notes, $33.1 million used to repurchase shares of our common stock, and $2.9 million used to repay the remaining principal on the 2026 Notes. Cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily consisted of the net proceeds from the sale of the 2030 Notes of $111.1 million (net of issuance costs), partially offset by the repayment in full of $93.6 million principal amount outstanding under the Credit Facility plus accrued interest and prepayment premium. We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements or obligations.

Over the next 12 months our total contractual obligations are $76.4 million, consisting of purchase commitments for normal operations (purchase of inventory, software licensing, use of external labor, and third-party cloud services) of $58.5 million, interest payments of $14.9 million related to long-term debt, and facility lease obligations of $3.0 million. We believe our existing cash and cash equivalents, together with cash flows expected to be generated by our operations, will be sufficient to fund these commitments.

Our non-current contractual obligations are $631.5 million, consisting of purchase commitments for normal operations (purchase of inventory, software licensing, use of external labor, and third-party cloud services) of $144.1 million, interest payments of $46.6 million and principal payments of $433.0 million related to long-term debt, and facility leases of $7.8 million. Refer to “Note 7 — Debt” of the notes to interim condensed consolidated financial statements in "Part I, Item 1. Financial Statements (unaudited)" of this Quarterly Report for additional information. We believe our existing cash and cash equivalents, together with cash flows expected to be generated by our operations, and if necessary, equity, equity-linked, or debt financing arrangements, will be sufficient to fund these commitments. Our actual cash needs will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth, growth of our SaaS revenues, the timing and extent of spending to support our product development and acquisition integration efforts, the timing of introductions of new products and enhancements to existing products, market acceptance of our products, and the factors described above in "Part I, Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, in the 2025 Annual Report, and in our other filings with the SEC.

From time to time, we may seek to raise additional capital through equity, equity-linked, and debt financing arrangements. In addition, our board of directors and management regularly evaluate our business, strategy, and financial plans and prospects. As part of this evaluation, the board of directors and management periodically consider strategic alternatives to maximize value for our shareholders, including strategic transactions such as an acquisition, or a sale or spin-off of non-strategic company assets or businesses. We cannot provide assurance that any additional financing or strategic alternatives will be available to us on acceptable terms or at all.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Our financial statements are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. GAAP requires the use of estimates, assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenue, and expense amounts reported. We believe our use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently applied. Valuations based on estimates are reviewed for reasonableness and adequacy on a consistent basis. Significant items subject to these estimates and assumptions include revenue recognition, the recognition and measurement of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations and asset acquisitions at fair value, identifiable intangible assets and goodwill, valuation allowances for receivables, and valuation of excess and obsolete inventories. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Our estimates are subject to uncertainties, including those associated with market conditions, risks and trends. Refer to "Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors" of this Quarterly Report for additional information. Our critical accounting policies have not changed materially from the discussion of those policies included under “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in our 2025 Annual Report, other than the update below related to goodwill.

As of September 1, 2026, the Company performed a quantitative goodwill impairment test of its single reporting unit, in response to, among other factors, the sustained decline in the Company’s share price and market capitalization through the third quarter of 2026 and the reversal of the recovery trend in September 2026. The estimated fair value of the reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by approximately 22% and, accordingly, no impairment was recognized. The fair value was estimated using a combination of income and market approaches, which require significant judgments, including projected revenue growth and operating margins, market multiples, a control premium, a discount rate of 12.5%, and a long-term growth rate of 3.0%. We considered events and circumstances through September 30, 2026, and concluded it was not more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit was less than its carrying value. If our share price and market capitalization decline further for a sustained period, particularly if accompanied by deterioration in our operating results, forecasts, peer valuation multiples, or other market-participant assumptions, we may be required to perform additional impairment testing.
Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

Our primary exposures relate to certain non-dollar denominated sales and operating expenses in Canada, Europe, Asia, and Australia. These primary currencies are the Great British Pound, the Euro, the Swiss Franc, the Serbian Dinar, the Australian dollar, the New Zealand dollar, the Singapore dollar, the Canadian dollar, the Indian Rupee, the Japanese Yen, the Polish Zloty, and the Chinese Renminbi. Accordingly, changes in exchange rates may negatively affect our revenue and net loss as expressed in U.S. dollars. We also have foreign currency risk related to foreign currency transactions and monetary assets and liabilities, including intercompany balances denominated in currencies that are not the functional currency. We have experienced and will continue to experience fluctuations in our net loss as a result of gains (losses) on these foreign currency transactions and the remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities. As of September 30, 2026, the impact of foreign currency exchange rate changes on our revenues and net loss was not material. Additionally, as of September 30, 2026, we estimated that a 10 percent change in exchange rates against the U.S. dollar would not have a material impact on earnings, cash flows, or fair values over a one-year period, and we have not engaged in any foreign currency hedging transactions.

Interest Rate Risk

As of September 30, 2026, we had $53.0 million, $115.0 million, and $265.0 million in aggregate principal amount outstanding on the 2027 Notes, the 2030 Notes, and the 2031 Notes, respectively.

We carry the Senior Notes at face value less unamortized debt issuance costs on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Because the Senior Notes bear interest at fixed rates, changes in market interest rates do not change their contractual interest payments or their carrying amounts under this accounting model. However, the fair value of the Senior Notes changes when interest rates change or the market price of our stock fluctuates, with the fair value of the Senior Notes generally increasing as our stock price increases and generally decreasing as our stock price declines. At September 30, 2026, a hypothetical 10 percent change in interest rates would not have a material impact on earnings or cash flows over a one-year period.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2026. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2026.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, did not identify any changes that occurred in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2026, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The information in "Note 11 — Commitments and Contingencies” of the notes to interim condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1. "Financial Statements (unaudited)" is incorporated herein by reference. We do not believe that we have any pending litigation that would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS

The risks described in the Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors” section of our 2025 Annual Report could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations, and the trading price of our common stock could decline. Except as modified, updated, or supplemented below, there have been no material changes to the Risk Factors described in our 2025 Annual Report.

The trading price and volume of our common stock have experienced, and may continue to experience, volatility, which could result in losses for our shareholders.

Fluctuations in the market price of our common stock may be significant and unpredictable, and shareholders may be unable to resell their shares at or above the price they paid. Additionally, volatility in the price of our common stock could limit our ability to use equity as consideration in acquisitions and other strategic transactions. Significant declines in our stock price or market capitalization may require impairment testing of goodwill and other intangible assets, potentially resulting in material non-cash impairment charges. A number of factors can impact the trading price of our common stock, including:

•the actual or perceived impact of uncertainties, volatility, and economic disruption created by macroeconomic conditions and geopolitical events, including inflation, recession, interest rate fluctuations, actual and potential shifts in and uncertainties with respect to U.S. and foreign trade policies (including new or increased tariffs or other trade restrictions implemented by the U.S. or retaliatory trade measures or tariffs implemented by other countries), actual or anticipated military or political conflicts (including the Russia-Ukraine war, tensions with China and between China and Taiwan, hostilities in the Middle East) and global pandemics or other public health crises, on our business, our customers, and the industries in which we operate;
•actual or anticipated fluctuations in our financial condition and results of operations (including shortfalls or changes in expectations about our revenue, gross margins, earnings, ARR, sales of our product and service offerings or other key performance metrics);
•the performance and prospects of major customers;
•our quarterly or annual financial results or those of other companies operating in our industries;
•the impact if our operating results or key metrics fall below the expectations of investors or securities analysts or below any guidance we may provide to the market;
•investor perception of us and the industries in which we operate;
•the contents of published research reports about us or the industries in which we operate;
41

Table of Contents
•any increased indebtedness we may incur in the future;
•actions by institutional shareholders;
•operating and stock performance of other companies that investors deem comparable to us (and changes in their market valuations) and overall performance of the equity markets;
•announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, acquisitions, dispositions, strategic relationships, or capital commitments; and
•litigation and governmental investigations.

In addition, the market for technology stocks or the stock market in general has experienced and may continue to experience uneven investor confidence, which may cause the trading price for our common stock to decline for reasons unrelated to our operating performance.

Item 5. OTHER INFORMATION
